About Akmerkez GYO

The “Akmerkez” concept originated with the collaboration of Akkök, Tekfen, and Istikbal groups, all of which are pioneers of their own industries, yet focuses on the same goal. The goal is both to revolutionize the “shopping center” concept of Istanbullites in order to provide them with many opportunities in one place; as well as to provide high-quality living spaces to elite members of the business world. As a result of the joint forces of the Groups, Akmerkez was inaugurated on December 18, 1993 in Etiler, one of the busiest districts in Istanbul. Even in its early years, the prudent strategies set forth by the founders of Akmerkez Shopping Center were recognized by prestigious institutions. In 1995, only one year after its inauguration, Akmerkez was named the “Best Shopping Center in Europe” by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC). In 1996, Akmerkez received the “ICSC International Design and Development” award, which is the biggest award issued in this field. The fact that Akmerkez is the first shopping center to receive both awards simultaneously as well as its structural and design quality along with the appeal of elite stores has rendered Akmerkez an exemplary shopping center.
