İsmail Bozkurt’s journey in trade began alongside his father in 1980. Today, that experience carries into Bozkurthan, the business of İsmail Bozkurt and his sons.
Experience in butchery and peanut trading grew to include Bozkurt Akaryakıt and Altıparmak Hayvancılık. Today, the story continues with Bozkurthan Hayvancılık and BOZKURTHAN LIVESTOCK OÜ in Estonia. We place value on keeping our word and earning trust in trade.
