Noatum, a leading provider of integrated port operations, maritime, and logistics services, and an AD Ports Group company, announced the inaugural launch of Noatum Maritime’s office in Türkiye.
Launch of the new office, to be led by Noatum Maritime, a core business unit of Noatum, will serve as an important step towards broadening the company’s reach in key regional markets with focus on strengthening its comprehensive maritime agency services in the Mediterranean region.
In addition, Noatum Maritime’s entry into Türkiye’s market is aligned with AD Ports Group’s vision for international expansion and presence across major global markets and trade lanes already connected to or offering strong prospects to connect to the UAE.
Led by Ömür Kuyucuoglu, who assumes the role of Country Manager for Noatum Maritime, the new entity will primarily serve as a port and liner agency, offering a comprehensive suite of maritime services tailored to meet the diverse needs of clients – inclusive of shipowners, ship operators, charterers, and ship managers.
Leveraging its local expertise and synergies across AD Ports Group and Noatum’s ecosystems, the office will deliver integrated services at every stage of maritime operation from its locations in Istanbul and Izmir.
Furthermore, the launch also builds on Noatum’s already extensive local and regional presence and expertise given its existing Noatum Logistics – East Europe, Türkiye & CIS office, which is also based in Istanbul.
Terry Gidlow, Chief Executive Officer, Noatum Maritime, Noatum, Logistics Cluster, AD Ports Group, said, “The establishment of our Türkiye office enables Noatum Maritime to expand its geographical reach, following our growth strategy and fostering deeper engagement with our existing clients. The office will seamlessly integrate into the broader Noatum ecosystem, aiming to deliver integrated maritime agency services better, faster and more cost-efficiently, while also attracting new customers in the Türkiye and the East Mediterranean region. Ultimately, our aim is to serve the market as a Top-5 global maritime service provider.”
