| Hello everyone, I'm Seda. |
| Hi everybody, my name is Seda and welcome to www.turkishclass101.com. |
| Today we'll talk about top 10 companies in Turkey. |
| This is hard to pick. |
| When you check the biggest companies in Turkey, |
| you'll find the companies with the biggest budgets. |
| But not all of them are well known to the public. |
| Most of them are government companies like the energy companies and things like that. |
| So I picked well-known companies for you guys. |
| I want to say there is no order in this list. |
| It's not like from biggest to smallest. |
| It's just a scrambled list, okay? |
| Are you ready? |
| Okay. |
| So, first of all, |
| Türk Hava Yolları and Turkish Airlines. |
| Turkish Airlines started in 1933 with only five planes and fewer than 30 employees |
| to today's airline like flying to do most of the countries. |
| I think the most countries in the world and celebrating its 87th year. |
| And let's check out some numbers about Turkish Airlines, okay? |
| I'll come back. |
| Okay, the next one is Turkcell. |
| Turkcell is a telecommunication and technology services provider since 1994. |

| With only six or seven boilers, a small oven, can you believe it? |
| And three employees producing around 200 kilograms of biscuits per day. |
| And now it's Turkey's largest food company. |
| The largest, yeah, it's Turkey's largest food company, right? |
| And other than Turkey's market, while the majority of products are exported to the Middle East, |
| Russia, and Central Asian Republics, it also exports to Europe, Africa, United States. |
| So it's a very big company. |
| You can see their products everywhere. |
| And I think that's about it. |
| Then we talk about Ülker. |
| The next company is a bit new comparing what I have introduced so far. |

| And the next one is again one of the oldest companies in Turkey. |
