Raben Group, one of the largest logistics players in Europe, announced its entry into the Turkish market on June 10, 2025. This expansion marks a significant step in growing their network, as Turkey becomes the 17th country in the group’s portfolio. For Slovak exporters and importers, this means a new strategic connection and even more efficient logistics between Slovakia and Turkey.

Key Benefits of Raben Group’s Expansion into Turkey

  • Direct transport routes from Turkey to EU countries including Slovakia, Poland, Czech Republic, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Romania, and Bulgaria.
  • A new logistics center in Istanbul with a cross-dock warehouse, 1,500 pallet capacity, and 2,000 sq m of storage space.
  • Comprehensive services: road, sea, and air transport, warehousing, customs services, and IT solutions for shipment tracking.
  • Access to a network of 33 depots in Germany, which is Turkey’s main export market.
  • Nearly 2 million sq m of warehouse space in 17 European countries within the Raben Group.

Significance for the Slovak Market

Thanks to this expansion, Slovakia gains even better access to the dynamically growing Turkish market. Raben Group is already among the leading logistics providers in Slovakia, offering its own fleet, modern warehouse facilities, and a developed branch network that ensures efficient and reliable transport across Europe.

With the new connection, Slovak companies can benefit from faster and more flexible logistics solutions for both export and import with Turkey, including support for customs procedures and the use of state-of-the-art IT platforms for real-time shipment tracking.

Turkey – A Growing Logistics Hub

Turkey is currently one of the fastest-growing markets in Europe, with a GDP of USD 1,118 billion in 2023 and a strong, young workforce. Raben Group’s entry into this market brings new opportunities for Slovak businesses to expand and optimize their supply chains.

“Entering the Turkish market is a major step for us. We are strengthening our network and expanding our ability to provide customers with top-class logistics solutions. Turkey is an important transport hub between the EU, CIS countries, the Middle East, and China,” said Bartłomiej Łapiński, Regional Director of Raben Group.

Raben Group’s expansion into Turkey brings new opportunities for Slovak companies, more efficient connections with the Turkish market, and access to the most advanced logistics solutions in Europe.
