Because we are a company that listens to the voice of its customers and understands their expectations. Under any circumstances, we do what is unfeasible, take on a leading role and we’re being followed.

Our stations are visited by a total of 500 thousand vehicles and about 1 million people a day. With Temiz Tuvalet Kampanyası(Clean Toilet Campaign), we brought in the standards, most of which were introduced to the sector for the first time, to our fuel stations and raised awareness about cleaning and hygiene.
