How was the situation of your company and sector in 2015? Could you kindly tell us your investments if you have?
2015 was generally nice. Our factory produced full capacity. But unfortunately profit rate was so low. That is to say, we worked but did not earn money. We researched the reason of it and understood that customer wants high quality and ready for paying the differences of quality. When we pursue cheap fason sewing, our competitors have already recovered their quality and technology. For this reason we decided to renovate our equipment’s. We recovered our ironing system. We purchased computer technology ironing presses.
What do you give attention when you make an investment in Machine Park?
We are doing our work corrosively. We know our job very well. What is our deficient? What is the source of problem? We can make firm. We thought so much if we buy European or local brand. All the references indicated to us Malkan.

Yes, I can say that we are so pleased with MALKAN. Because, MALKAN produce pressing machine according to our jackets form. Presses are so equipped. They have all programs, software and equipment’s which they need. Malkan’s team is so effective and companionable. They are with us whenever we need them. Qualities of materials are so good. They completely use quality proved materials in international markets. They are advanced in the field of creating special molds. I would like to say that we purchased so effective ironing presses from Malkan.
What is your expectations about sector and your company in 2016?
We hope that everything will be good. Our neighbor countries are disordered and have problems as you know. And our country is exposed to terror attack. We produce to companies who export their products to Iran, Syria, Egypt etc., if their profit rate reduces, it will reflect to us.
