TurkishBrands.org

We do not broker transactions, take commissions, or insert ourselves into negotiations. A buyer's inquiry routes directly to the brand, with no intermediary capturing it. The site is funded by paid brand listings for verified exporters — never by buyer fees or pay-to-play ranking.

We are not affiliated with the Turkish government, the Turkish Exporters Assembly (TİM), Turquality, or any chamber of commerce. We index their public disclosures the same way we index brand websites.

Verification

How we verify a brand.

Listing is gated. Before a brand appears in the directory, we confirm three things:

  1. 01

    Identity & registration

    Active Turkish commercial registration, tax ID, and matching domain ownership. Brands trading under shell entities are rejected.

  2. 02

    Export track record

    At least one of: shipment manifests, customs declarations, third-party reseller listings, or a verifiable buyer reference. New exporters can submit under a "Newly export-ready" tag pending shipment evidence.

  3. 03

    Certifications on file

    Where a brand claims a certification (GOTS, OEKO-TEX, ISO, CE, IFS, BRC, etc.), we verify with the issuing body directly. Unverifiable certifications are dropped from the listing — not just unbadged.

Re-verification runs every 90 days for active listings. A brand whose certifications lapse loses the relevant badge before the next index rebuild.

Data

How data is collected.

Every brand page surfaces a "Last verified" date and a sources block. We split data into three tiers:

First-party
Submitted by the brand and signed off as accurate. Catalog details, MOQ, lead times.
Third-party verified
Certifications confirmed with the issuing body. Customs and shipment data from public manifests. TİM and Turquality membership lists.
Indexed
Public web content — brand websites, product catalogs, marketplace reseller listings. Re-crawled monthly. Marked clearly so buyers can weigh it accordingly.
Sources

What sources we use.

  • Brand websites Catalog scraping for product names, pricing, MOQ, and lead-time signals. Monthly re-crawls.
  • Turkish Exporters Assembly (TİM) disclosures Public Export Champion lists and member directories.
  • Turquality program registry Brands supported under the official global-brand program.
  • Customs and shipment manifests Where publicly available, to confirm export activity to declared markets.
  • Certification bodies Direct verification with GOTS, OEKO-TEX, IFS, CE-marking issuers, and similar.
  • Buyer reports Submitted via /submit; reviewed before any listing change.

We do not buy lead-generation databases, scrape LinkedIn profiles, or list a brand without its knowledge.

Listing

Listing guidelines.

To stay listed, a brand must:

  • Respond to verification re-checks within 30 days of request.
  • Keep certifications current. Lapsed certifications must be re-issued or removed from the listing.
  • Honor a "no broker" stance — inquiries from this site route to you, and you reply to the buyer directly, not back through us.
  • Disclose material business changes: ownership, manufacturing location, or scope shifts.

What we will not list:

  • Brokers, agents, or trading companies that do not manufacture.
  • Brands operating under sanctions or active export bans.
  • Listings that misrepresent country of origin or manufacturing capability.
