Message From The CEO

On the road we set out in 2007, we proceed to the target with confident steps. Our goal is to make Ankaref, a global brand that Turkey's proud of.

IoT (Internet of Things) - The world of Internet of Things is growing rapidly every day. While there were about 15 billion IoT endpoints in the world in 2015, today this figure has reached approximately 30 billion. It is estimated that there will be approximately 75 billion IoT endpoints in 2025. The IoT market, which was approximately 100 billion USD in 2015, is 250 billion USD today. In 2025, the IoT market is expected to be 1.5 trillion USD. These data are only data of the IoT market. When we add communication, cloud, business intelligence, artificial intelligence and other services that arise thanks to IoT, a huge market emerges.

Ankaref is taking firm steps to become one of the important players in this market. In the last 13 years we have managed to become one of the companies leading the IOT industry not only in Turkey but also in the international market. With its approach that puts innovation and R&D at its focal point, it has proved the level of Turkish engineers by showing the success of signing the first projects realized in our country and even in the world.

ANKAREF, which has received numerous awards such as Europe's Best RFID Company, European Business Award in the field of customer satisfaction, Innovation Brand of the Year, Deloitte Fast 50 in 2019, is the fastest growing company in total, increasing its knowledge and turning new technologies into new products. and it continues to produce for Turkey.

The most important value that differentiates Ankaref in the IoT sector is to listen well to our customers, analyze their needs in the best way and thus provide end-to-end IoT solutions in dozens of industries. In addition, we provide our customers' processes with small technological touches to increase cost advantage, quality or brand value.

In the last 13 years, Ankaref has successfully implemented its service business model in many different sectors. As of 2020, we are starting to recommend our business model of providing a service model solution in all sectors if our customer requests it. In this model, our customer will not need to purchase any software, hardware. In these processes, we will work as part of our client and we will win as long as our client wins. When we are in the process, we will meet our customer's needs as long as our customer receives this service with our service-based model that can meet our customer's needs 24/7. Although technology changes, additional improvements will be provided in software, but with our customer's interest, we will ensure more efficient use of resources and the use of uninterrupted technology.

To date, we offer cold chain and stock tracking of vaccines to our children as a service throughout the country. We follow the world's largest cold chain system with instant monitoring and tracking service at approximately 12,350 locations. Determination of concrete quality, smart warehouses, asset management, production process tracking, cow estrus, smart library and museums, logistics management and defense industry solutions are among the areas studied by Ankaref.

Ankaref completes ideas, R&D, design and production processes like a factory and offers different products to the use of its customers. Products with the potential to be commercialized are now transformed into a new company and continue on their way. Today we have companies that leave Ankaref and continue their commercial activity.

We know that a producing Turkey will never be exposed to overseas-based crises. We will continue to spend every penny we earn from this country and abroad to our people and our country with the awareness that we have to leave our country, our children at a higher level, which our ancestors entrusted to us.

As we grow, our country will grow. Therefore, we will increase our export activities with the knowledge and experience we have achieved so far. To protect our innovative structure, invest in technology and people, increase our prevalence and effectiveness in the existing sectors where we operate, and place more in the international market in line with our vision that will carry our company to the future our most important goal.

I would like to thank all our stakeholders, especially our customers, employees and business partners, for their valuable contributions and their commitment and trust in us.

We know with faith from the late Prof.Dr.Fuat Sezgin Teacher's "You can, because you did it before".


Best regards.
