Diversified logistics and maritime holding operating container fleet and integrated transport services
Arkas is a century-old Turkish holding operating 55 companies across maritime, logistics, ports, and terminals, plus adjacent sectors like insurance and automotive. The tech stack clusters heavily around SAP (SRM, MM, Ariba) and enterprise networking (Cisco, Palo Alto, Fortinet, SolarWinds), reflecting a capital-intensive, multi-site operations profile. Active hiring spans operations, sales, and procurement with mid-level roles dominant—consistent with operational scaling rather than transformation.
Founded in 1902 and headquartered in Izmir, Arkas operates an integrated logistics network combining maritime shipping, port and terminal services, and multimodal transport (sea, land, rail, air). The company owns Turkey's largest container vessel fleet (49 ships) plus bulk and bunker barges. Arkas employs 8,300 people across 67 global offices and 55 subsidiary companies. Beyond core logistics, the holding diversifies into bunkering, automotive, insurance, information systems, and tourism. Revenue and scale suggest mid-market freight and supply-chain operations with both B2B and B2C service lines.
