Our Founder

Born in 1950, Selahattin Canbeyli entered business life in Şanlıurfa in 1975 and laid the foundations of what is today known as Canbeyli Group of Companies. A journey that began in automotive spare parts soon expanded into fuel retail, construction and ready-mixed concrete.

Known for his commitment to founding values and his sense of responsibility toward employees and society, Selahattin Canbeyli continues to guide the group as its honorary advisor.

The Board

Cihan Canbeyli — Chairman of the Board

Son of Selahattin Canbeyli, Cihan Canbeyli took over the group's leadership in 2009 and shaped its multi-sector growth strategy. The development of the Honda and KIA dealership, the founding of Canbeyli Sigorta, the investments in Bursa and Samsun, and the post-2020 transformation into mining and agriculture all took place under his leadership.

Cihan Canbeyli carries the group forward with a focus on sustainable production, digital transformation and corporate governance.

Our Approach to Management

  • Corporate governance — Transparency, accountability and equality.
  • Long-term thinking — Sustainable value over short-term profit.
  • Decisions close to the field — Respect for the operational reality and specialist teams of every business line.
  • People focus — A capable workforce, continuous development.
  • Customer focus — Quality service and long-term relationships.
  • Environmental and social responsibility — Awareness of our impact on people and nature in every decision.

We evaluate new investments and partnerships by weighing sector fit, operational capacity, financial sustainability and long-term social impact together.
