Albayrak Holding is a Turkish conglomerate. For the first three decades it was a construction company, but since 1982 it has expanded into other sectors, including transport and logistics, waste management, and media.[1] It acquired the Yeni Şafak newspaper in 1997.[1]
The company was founded in 1952 by Ahmet Albayrak, and until his death in 2010 was run by him and his six sons.[2][3][4] Nuri Albayrak was a partner at Yeni Şafak until he became President of Trabzonspor.[3] Mustafa Albayrak is Yeni Şafak's CEO.[5]
