# 30 leading distributors and wholesalers in Istanbul

Tamtam tracks 44 distributors and wholesalers headquartered in Istanbul. This list ranks the 30 largest by number of employees on LinkedIn, led by Borusan Holding, Eren Perakende and Toyota Türkiye Pazarlama ve Satış A.Ş.. Their median headcount is 616. Half of them were founded in 1990 or later.

The companies listed are primarily distributors and wholesalers based in Istanbul, with a significant presence in retail, automotive, and oil and gas sectors. Notably, Borusan Holding is an industrial conglomerate in steel, energy, and logistics, while Eren Perakende operates as a retail group with international brand partnerships. Toyota Türkiye Pazarlama ve Satış A.Ş. handles marketing and sales for vehicles, and METRO Türkiye is a wholesale trade leader. Adco specializes in petroleum additives and oil & gas services, and Aksa Natural Gas focuses on natural gas distribution.

A recurring pattern among these companies is their strong involvement in distribution and sales within Turkey, often for international brands or industrial products. Many of them, such as Borusan Otomotiv (a BMW distributor) and Würth Türkiye (a supplier of diverse products), serve as key intermediaries in various industries. The concentration of these operations in Istanbul suggests its role as a central hub for distribution and wholesale activities in the region.

## How this list is built

Every company on this list has a Tamtam company profile. The industry is the one the company gives on LinkedIn; categories such as SaaS or fintech are classified by Tamtam's AI from the company's website and LinkedIn page; and the headquarters city must match the company's own address. Companies are ranked by the number of employees on LinkedIn, and the list is refreshed every night. Classifications can be wrong, so treat the list as a starting point rather than an official ranking. Last updated Nov 12, 2026.
