Anadolu Group

🚨 Reasons for Boycotting Anadolu Group

Anadolu Group Holding A.Ş. is a Turkish multinational holding company founded in 1950 by the Özilhan and Yazıcı families, headquartered in Istanbul, Turkey. The holding owns companies including Anadolu Efes, Coca-Cola İçecek (CCI), Anadolu Isuzu, Migros, Anadolu Motor, Çelik Motor, Anadolu Landini, Adel Kalemcilik, and Alternatif Bank. Anadolu Group, through Anadolu Isuzu, supplies buses and midibuses to israel, directly contributing to the israeli economy, and by refusing to sever ties with israel, it contributes to the normalization of genocide.

1. Anadolu Isuzu's Bus Deliveries to israel: Anadolu Isuzu, part of Anadolu Group, delivered a total of 48 midibuses and buses to four transportation operators in israel in 2021. With this delivery to the israeli market, the company completed 2021 with record exports. Anadolu Isuzu directly contributes to the israeli economy by supplying commercial vehicles to israel. This commercial relationship demonstrates that Anadolu Group maintains actual cooperation with israel.Anadolu Isuzu: Anadolu Isuzu Delivers 48 Buses and Medium-Size Coaches to the israeli Market (2022)Anadolu Agency: Anadolu Isuzu delivers 48 buses and midibuses to israeli market (January 2022)
   
   Important Note on Coca-Cola İçecek and israel: The user-provided information claimed that CCI is a bottling partner in israel. However, research shows that Coca-Cola İçecek has no operations in israel. Coca-Cola operations in israel are managed by an independent israeli company, The Central Bottling Company (CBC). CCI operates in 12 countries, and israel is not among them.CCI: CCI at a Glance — Operating Geography (2025)CNCD: The Central Beverage Company Ltd. (Coca-Cola israel) — independent israeli franchisee
2. Anadolu Group's Stake in CCI and Boycott Calls: Anadolu Group is the largest shareholder of Coca-Cola İçecek through Anadolu Efes. CCI's shareholder structure is as follows: Anadolu Efes 40.12%, The Coca-Cola Company 20.09%, Efes Pazarlama ve Dağıtım Ticaret A.Ş. 10.14%, Özgörkey Group 0.79%, and public 28.86%. Boycott calls over alleged israel ties reduced Coca-Cola İçecek's market share in Turkey and Pakistan. CCI's market share in Turkey fell by five points to 54%, and its share in Pakistan declined by four points. These boycott calls are made due to the perception that Anadolu Group is linked to israel.CCI: Frequently Asked Questions — Shareholder Structure (2025)Gazete Oksijen: Boycott calls were effective — Coca-Cola's market share declined (September 2025)Profit by Pakistan Today: Coca-Cola Icecek sees market share decline amid boycott calls (September 2025)
3. Other israel Connections of Anadolu Group: Other connections of Anadolu Group with israel include:
   • Anadolu Efes (basketball team) plays against israeli teams in EuroLeague. However, Anadolu Efes refused to travel to israel and played its home games in Montenegro.
   • Migros, part of Anadolu Group, sells israeli-origin products. However, Migros has no direct connection to israeli capital.
   • Ana Gıda (owner of the Komili brand) belonged to Anadolu Group, but 55% of its shares were transferred to US-based Bunge.Sporx: Anadolu Efes will not travel to israel (November 2025)Boykotcu: Is Migros israeli? (October 2025)Boykotcu: Is Komili Boycotted? (October 2025)
4. Double Standards and Silence: Anadolu Group emphasizes its commitments to corporate responsibility and sustainability. However, the company supplies commercial vehicles to israel through Anadolu Isuzu, maintains its commercial relations with israel, and has issued no statement condemning the genocide in Gaza or the illegal settlement enterprise in the West Bank. This contradiction between corporate responsibility claims and actual corporate cooperation with israel exposes the company's double standards.Anadolu Group: Corporate Responsibility
