Mustafa Kaya
Chairman of the Board
When I came to Istanbul from Trabzon in the 1950s, I was filled with excitement and desire to succeed. Over the years, I have always cared about preserving this amateur spirit.
I think the secret to success in business life is to combine professionalism with amateur spirit.
I am proud on behalf of my country and my family that Kayalar, which I founded in 1957, has become a group of companies operating in many areas and is a preferred brand worldwide, and I share this pride with you, my valuable stakeholders.
As of 2014, our group companies have been institutionalized and each one is managed autonomously and competitively by our family members under the Kayalar brand and guarantee. Therefore, our company has been safely entrusted to the second generation from the first founding generation. We continue to concentrate on the necessary infrastructure works for the continuation of our success and delivery at an even higher level with the upcoming third generation.
The Industrial Kitchen Sector gained momentum in Turkey in the 1980s with tourism, and our sector, which was initially focused on import, now produces all kinds of products at world standards and exports them to 5 continents.
The point reached today is a product of the ability to correctly read the future, because the Industrial Kitchen Sector, which has gained real importance with tourism investments, is progressing in parallel with new investment trends.
We carry the pride and responsibility of being the preferred solution partner of our investors in many areas such as Health Institutions, Educational Institutions, Military Institutions, Foreign Contracting Activities, Fast Foods, Shopping Malls, Ship Industry, City Hotels, etc.
As Kayalar Group, we work with superior motivation to ensure that you, our valuable stakeholders, are always one step ahead of your competitors in today's competitive environment by both meeting their needs professionally and adding our exciting amateur spirit to the business.
I would like to thank you for trusting and choosing the Kayalar brand and present my love and respect. Mustafa Kaya, who is the Chairman of the Board of Kayalar Industrial Kitchen, is also the Chairman of the Board of the Kutlu Bilgi Foundation, a family foundation. He is also the Honorary President of Maçka Health Vocational High School, which he founded.
