Our Journey

1997 - Rotterdam
It All Started with a Passion

In 1997, two brothers, Tuncer Akarca and Zafer Akarca, turned their shared passion for fresh produce into a family business in the heart of Rotterdam. With nothing but dedication and a clear vision, they started small, committed to delivering the finest fruits and vegetables. What began as a humble operation quickly grew, driven by their unwavering determination to bring top-quality produce to customers far and wide.

2010 - Belorta - SKW Belgium
New countries, new oppurtunities

By 2010, the Akarca brothers' hard work and passion had opened doors to new markets. Partnering with Belorta / SKW in Belgium, the business expanded beyond borders, gaining trust and recognition in international markets. This milestone marked a turning point—transforming a small family business into a thriving operation that connected Belgian expertise with the global fresh produce industry.
