About Us

Helping international companies succeed in Türkiye and supporting Turkish businesses in expanding globally.

Karumex is an independent strategic advisory firm helping companies navigate the intersection of business, government, and international trade.

We advise international companies seeking to establish, expand, or strengthen their presence in Türkiye, while supporting Turkish companies in accessing global markets through export development, international partnerships, and business growth strategies.

Our expertise is built on years of experience gained within the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Trade and the UK Department for Business and Trade, where we worked with government institutions, multinational companies, investors, exporters, and industry leaders. This experience provides us with a unique understanding of Türkiye’s regulatory landscape, public institutions, and commercial environment, allowing us to help clients make informed decisions and achieve sustainable growth.

Over the years, we have supported numerous international companies with market entry, regulatory affairs, government engagement, business development, distributor identification, lead generation, and strategic partnerships.

We have also worked closely with Turkish companies to strengthen their export capabilities, identify international opportunities, and establish long-term commercial relationships in overseas markets.

Through these engagements, we have built an extensive network across Türkiye and the United Kingdom, encompassing multinational companies, SMEs, investors, distributors, industry associations, professional service providers, and senior decision-makers. This trusted network enables us to connect our clients with the right people, organizations, and opportunities at every stage of their growth journey.

Our track record includes facilitating more than 500 executive-level business meetings, organizing more than 10 international trade missions across Türkiye and overseas, and contributing to export wins valued at more than US$60 million. These experiences have enabled us to connect businesses with the right partners, government institutions, investors, distributors, and industry stakeholders while creating lasting commercial value.

Our experience spans a broad range of industries, including manufacturing, agritech, agriculture, food & drink, chemicals, mining, critical minerals, industrial technologies, logistics, consumer products, and international trade.

At Karumex, we believe successful international growth requires more than market knowledge. It requires strategic insight, regulatory expertise, trusted relationships, and disciplined execution. We work as an extension of our clients’ teams, helping them reduce complexity, manage risk, accelerate market entry, and build meaningful commercial partnerships.

Whether supporting a global company entering Türkiye or helping a Turkish business expand internationally, our objective is the same: to turn market opportunities into sustainable business success.
