We brought the construction sand from Sakarya to Istanbul and began wholesale warehousing here. 

We have become a wholesale supplier of Sakarya sand to nearly 400 construction material companies on the Anatolian Side of Istanbul. 

Thus, we became the largest sand supplier on the Anatolian Side. 

In addition, we expanded our wholesale construction materials network by adding dealerships for cement, lime, and plaster, and chemical adhesives to the construction materials wholesale market that we initially entered with sand. 

Until the 1999 earthquake, we became a regional brand capable of supplying all types of rough construction materials simultaneously on the Anatolian Side of Istanbul.
