Istanbul, Turkey

Sunbelt®, the world’s largest network of franchised business brokerage offices, has signed a master franchise agreement with LARA Limited for the development of Sunbelt offices in The Republic of Turkey.

“We are pleased to expand the international footprint of Sunbelt into Turkey,” said Kelci Lanich, Sunbelt Assistant Brand Manager. “LARA Limited is an established company within their local community with a proven track record in the Turkish business environment. LARA, Limited owners, Müşerref Ilpars and Kemal Semsar, each have over twenty-five years of experience as senior executives and have been involved in a variety of businesses, including automotive wholesale and retail sales, foreign trade and consulting. Their extensive business backgrounds will serve them well as they work to introduce the relatively new industry of business brokerage to their marketplace. We are excited to work with them as they grow awareness of the profession and the Sunbelt name abroad!”

“Our country has the 15th largest economy in the world and offers a great investment environment with its strategic location as well as its motivated and qualified workforce,” stated Kemal Semsar. “There is a profound need and opportunity for business brokerage services in Turkey. The approach to business is more professional than ever before and while our business support systems are not as strong as they could be, the need is there. We feel our timing is ideal and it’s a great time for Sunbelt in Turkey.”
