My transition to Petlas resulted from a headhunting offer from the company while I was serving as Supply Chain Director at Continental Tires. This opportunity presented an exciting new challenge in my career, where I was tasked with leading the Ankara plant. At Petlas, I spearheaded key initiatives to support the company's growth and strengthen its position in the tire market. My achievements include:

Development of new products: Led R&D teams in designing and developing innovative new products to meet changing market demands, such as low rolling resistance tires for improved energy efficiency and tires suited for electric vehicles.
My journey at Continental Tires was marked by constant evolution. Starting as a Supply Chain Analyst in 1994, I progressed within the company to the role of Manager before attaining the position of Supply Chain Director in 2001.
As a Supply Chain Director, I oversaw complex logistic operations to support tire distribution on both national and international scales.
