Dörter Printing and Packaging was established in 1955 as a small workshop by four close friends.
Since 1955, Dörter has become one of the most preferred brands for its quality and experience both in Turkey and in the region across borders. One decade after the establishment of Dörter Printing and Packaging, Dogan Printing was founded. Its founder Vural Heper, who has been always dreaming to create value for society and the people around himself. He established the company in a small 10m2 shop in Istanbul with a hand pedal machine that is still in use. Both companies were the pioneers in their fields, and they made extensive contributions to Turkey’s industrialization. They have enhanced their operations with tens of years of experience and with their respect for their business partners and their business.
Dörter Printing and Packaging is the first manufacturer of McDonald’s that was the first fast-food-chain brand in Turkey. It is one of the founding members of the Cardboard Packaging Manufacturers Association, and it is Turkey’s first approved registered producer of the playing cards.
Dogan Printing had continued its contributions to Turkey’s economy for both local and export markets by supplying the box and packaging needs of many large companies, such as Santral Textile and Bozkurt Textile, both were the biggest textile companies of their time. The collaboration with Zorlu Textile has started in 1998 and it has been continuing successfully for more than 20 years.
In 2010, Dörter and Dogan Packaging and Printing companies have merged, and they have become Turkey’s one of the largest packaging groups. Followed by the merger, international FSC certification and successful SEDEX audits have brought international recognition and further expansion into new export markets.
