HISTORY

The adventure of ALTINBALIK dates back to the 1940s. The extension that started in the profession, which has been carried out for three generations from grandfather to grandchild, is based on Büyükada. In those days, my dear grandfather laid the foundation for us to be the first by consolidating the fishing profession he learned from the Greeks during his youth on the islands, in Yalova, where they moved after marrying his precious wife (my grandmother). Then, the profession carried out by my father, Erdinç Erkorkmaz, reached its golden age, and by starting the first export of fish (shark and stingray fish) to foreign countries, he succeeded in making his name known to Turkey. We, as the third generation, continue to work with all our strength in order to advance our profession, which we took over from my father, to the highest levels.
