COMPANY

Aközbekler Textile started life in 1983 in Istanbul as a family-owned business. Upon trademark registration of the brand ‘Superstar Jeans’, we started the production of our own denim jeans collection. In a short time we developed a large customer base within both the domestic market and neighbouring countries through combining global fashion trends with high quality production standards. We ended the production of Superstar Jeans in 2006 in order to focus on manufacturing denim and non-denim goods for international brands.
Our total production capacity is 450.000 pcs per month in Istanbul and Urfa. We have a new factory in the South East of Turkey(urfa), with an IN-HOUSE prouction capacity of 150.000 pcs/monthly from cutting to final shipment. With this new factory we are able to produce large volume orders at competitive prices. We are also using some reliable subcontractors when needed. Our turnaround for production is 4-6 weeks depending on the style.
We are aware of our all responsibilities in terms of workers in the field of social compliance, suppliers and the environment ; we fullfill our requirements by establishing sustainable systems. Our company is constantly monitored by independent audit firms in terms of social conformity such as BSCI & Sedex which are all rated high levels. (Our BSCI audit rating is B) Twice a year we present our new collection at Denim by PV Barcelona.
