We have developed and awarded to our country a magnificent project like Vadistanbul. We manage 35,000 residences, 6 shopping malls and 8 hotels that are delivered and under construction. Drawing upon our knowledge and experience, now we are stepping to a whole new cooperation. We are happy to have Mövenpick, an international brand managed by Accor, in our Çamlıvadi and Saklıvadi projects built as part of our main brand, European Residences. We are excited to see the value the brand will add.
