IPEKYOL Group Strengthens Its Multi-Brand Portfolio in Its 40th Anniversary Year
Celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2026, IPEKYOL Group is reinforcing its multi-brand retail structure with the addition of Trussardi’s Türkiye retail operations, alongside its established brands IPEKYOL, Twist and Machka.
The Group currently operates 339 stores, including 276 in Türkiye and 63 across international markets, and employs a workforce of 3,250 people.
Founded 40 years ago and operating in the women’s ready-to-wear sector, IPEKYOL Group continues to expand its presence both in Türkiye and internationally. The Group is chaired by Yalçın Ayaydın, while Uğur Ayaydın serves as CEO.
Women represent approximately 83% of IPEKYOL Group’s workforce. Of the Group’s 577 managers, 475 are women, highlighting the strong representation of women across both its workforce and leadership structure.
A Strong Retail and Digital Presence
As of 2026, IPEKYOL Group operates 305 stores, including 252 in Türkiye and 53 across international markets. Beyond its physical retail network, the Group also reaches customers through its brands’ e-commerce websites and mobile applications.
Across Europe, IPEKYOL Group sells through Zalando in 13 countries, with Germany among its key markets, as well as through Fashion Days in Romania. In the Gulf region, the Group operates through its own e-commerce platforms and selected regional online marketplaces.
Physical stores and digital channels are managed as complementary parts of an integrated customer experience.
Expanding Its Multi-Brand Retail Structure with Trussardi
In 2026, IPEKYOL Group further expanded its multi-brand retail portfolio by taking over Trussardi’s retail and store operations in Türkiye.
Founded in 1911, Trussardi is part of Miroglio Group, IPEKYOL Group’s Italian business partner.
Trussardi’s first store in Türkiye opened at Rixos The Land of Legends in Antalya. Under the collaboration, a total of three Trussardi stores are planned to operate in Türkiye.
The partnership marks another step in IPEKYOL Group’s evolution as a multi-brand fashion retailer, combining the management of its own brands — IPEKYOL, Twist and Machka — with the Türkiye operations of an international fashion house.
Advancing Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence
As part of its 40th anniversary year, IPEKYOL Group continues to expand its investments in digitalisation and artificial intelligence across retail, manufacturing and headquarters operations.
The Group’s technology investments focus on areas including data analytics, personalised customer experiences, e-commerce, operational efficiency and decision-support systems.
A key area of the Group’s ongoing transformation is the integrated use of customer data across IPEKYOL, Twist and Machka. This approach supports more data-driven decision-making across collection planning, inventory management, sales and store operations.
Manufacturing Performance and Economic Scale
IPEKYOL Giyim Sanayi was included in the Istanbul Chamber of Industry’s “Türkiye’s Second 500 Largest Industrial Enterprises 2025” survey.
The company was also named among the “Top 10 Most Profitable Companies in the Second 500” within the same ranking.
These results provide an indication of IPEKYOL Group’s economic scale in manufacturing and its overall performance in 2025, complementing the Group’s strong position in fashion retail.
As IPEKYOL Group marks its 40th anniversary, it continues to strengthen its position through its multi-brand retail structure, extensive domestic and international store network, manufacturing capabilities, strong female workforce and continued investment in technology.
