Launched with the vision of creating minimum 10 international brands
from Turkey, Turquality first gathered the textile industry under its
umbrella. As Turquality started to broaden its scope with other
industries, Çilek joined the program as the first brand from the
furniture industry.
Soon after participating in Turquality, Çilek took several steps to
restructure and improve its processes. Çilek received consultancy
services, formed a Turquality project team, strengthened its
infrastructure, prepared business plans and adopted a course of action.
By adopting globally-known Kaizen System in its production process,
Çilek switched to Lean Manufacturing and consequently increased its
production performance. Investing in information technologies, Çilek
commenced ERP practices. In addition, improving its business processes
by means of consultancy services, Çilek initiated numerous corporate
applications.
Çilek focused on the promotional, advertising and marketing
activities of Turquality. Thanks to both material and moral support of
Turquality, Çilek conducted marketing activities in many different
countries and took considerable steps to increase brand recognition.
