From a roasted-chickpea counter to today

Our founder Veli Tefenlili went into business in 1962; a few years later he was selling roasted chickpeas from a small shop in Kaleiçi. In 1970 his sons İbrahim, Ramazan and Hakkı Tefenlili joined, and step by step the shop grew into a nut producer.

Today our team of 125 produces nuts at our facility in Gümüşler, Denizli, for customers in Türkiye and abroad.
