ABOUT US

Rooted in trust,
built for the future.

Çetinkayalar Automotive began operations in Elazığ in 1984 and became a Ford Otosan dealer in 1987.

Following the opening of its integrated Elazığ facility in 2000, the group launched Avis Elazığ in 2009 and became a Brisa regional wholesale distributor in 2013. In 2014, it opened its Bandag retreading facility, began tire dealership operations and completed the Ford Trucks 4S facility in Malatya. Budget Malatya joined the portfolio in 2018. Today, the group operates across vehicle retail, commercial vehicles, used vehicles, insurance, rental, tire distribution, retreading and EV charging.
