Turkey Brands Worth Knowing | Euronomy

Turkey is not an EU member, but it has been in a customs union with the EU since 1995, and Turkish factories are stitched into European supply chains from appliances to cars. Turkish Airlines flies to more countries than any other carrier, and Arçelik runs Beko and Grundig at the top of European home appliances.

The bench runs deep: Vestel electronics, Bellona and İstikbal furniture, Ülker and Eti in the snack aisle, LC Waikiki and Koton on the high street, Mavi in denim, plus Efes, the beer behind much of the region's football.

Below: the Turkish brands worth choosing over US or Chinese defaults.
