Who we are / Our locations

Two offices. One strategic city. Global reach.

Both Global Trading offices are located in Ataşehir, Istanbul — the commercial and financial district on the Asian side, sitting at the precise geographic intersection of European manufacturing and Middle Eastern, Central Asian, and African markets.

Our address

Ataşehir — Istanbul's business district

Global Trading operates from two office locations in Ataşehir, Istanbul — one of Turkey's premier commercial and financial districts. Ataşehir is home to Turkey's leading financial institutions, international corporate headquarters, and professional services firms, and sits directly adjacent to the TEM motorway corridor — the primary freight artery connecting Istanbul to the rest of Europe, the Caucasus, and the Middle East by road.

Our offices in this district give us immediate access to Istanbul's multimodal logistics infrastructure: Ambarlı Port (Turkey's largest container terminal, 40 minutes west), Istanbul Airport (45 minutes northwest), and Sabiha Gökçen Airport (20 minutes east on the Asian side).
