The Sabancı family is a family of Turkish businesspeople founded by Hacı Ömer Sabancı, a wealthy trader. Some second and third generation members of the family control today a group of Turkish companies that were established mostly by the efforts of his son Sakıp Sabancı.[1] After the death of Sakıp Sabancı, also known as Sakip Aga, in 2004, the granddaughter of the founder, Güler Sabancı, was chosen to run Sabancı Holding.[2]

The Sabancı (and Koç) family,[3][4] like many of today's Turkish entrepreneurs, benefited from the Armenian Genocide and the elimination of the Armenians and the Armenian competition[5] by taking part in takeovers of old minority-run ventures, which were encouraged by the government[6][7] and which led to the creation of a new Turkish Bourgeoisie.[8][9][10][11]
