Sile Beekeepers Agricultural Development Cooperative

Our Agricultural Development Cooperative, which covers the center and villages of Şile, was selected among our beekeepers in December 2013 with the support and incentives of our District Governor Mr. Salih Yüce, our Mayor Mr. Can Tabakoğlu, our Forestry Operations Manager Mr. Murat Çakır and our District Manager Mr. Veysel Yiğin. It started the establishment process with 7 founding members. In February 2014, with the approval of the Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and the Governor's Office, we started to register members.

The aim of our cooperative is to contribute to the promotion of Şile, the development and economic development of Şile beekeepers, by offering chestnut honey, one of the very important values of Şile, to the consumers with the value and quality it deserves, with a corporate identity of the Şile beekeeper.

Our vision is to create a permanent value by promoting the Şile brand in beekeeping and bee products to the whole of Turkey and to the whole world thanks to the 45th Apimondia Congress of the World Beekeepers Association to be held in Istanbul in 2017.
