Global Structure

Mert Tarim was established in 1996 in Istanbul. In 2011, its head office was moved to Antalya in order to serve the developing market conditions more effectively. Developing its activities every day, Mert Tarim offers exotic-tropical fruits and vegetables grown in different geographies and climates of the world. Mert Tarim particularly serves consumers in the Mediterranean Region and provides fresh vegetables and fruits grown in the Anatolian territory to consumers in foreign markets.

Opened in 1998 in Istanbul, Bayrampaşa is the Ideal Agricultural Office No. 208 and it carries out the distribution and launch of the highest quality products with its long years of experience in the sector.

Since 2006, the Izmir Branch has been in charge of sales points in the Aegean Region, delivering products from the central warehouse to the region. In addition, it conducts activities to promote products in the region by contacting new sales points and potential customers.

The warehouse located in Yalova provides the highest quality fruits, vegetables, materials, equipment, and services in the region, specializing in kiwi. The region’s products are stored following appropriate storage conditions—for instance, humidity settings are carefully controlled. All of these products are shipped to the central warehouse.

Denizli Yard features 1,000 acres of land in Denizli, Turkey. Apples, pears, and grapes are grown for all world markets following the Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) certification requirements. Some of the land is used for R & D, and studies have been conducted with a team of 40 people. At this facility, the suitability of products to the region, geography, and climate are tested and the entire production process is monitored.

Blueberries that can meet the market’s demands and be supplied throughout the season are grown in 20 acres of land located in Trabzon, which holds an "Organic" certification. A team of three people carries out the production process on sun- and south-facing land with proper water drainage, airflow, humidity, and acid levels.

Based on market and customer needs, fresh fruits and vegetables from the best manufacturers in the Mediterranean are packaged in accordance with Ideal's brand criteria at the packaging station in Antalya. Then, they are shipped to the warehouse and various sales points.
