Our founder, Dr. Engin Pak, decided to start yeast production in 1972 after years of hygienic industrial experience in pharmaceutical and raw material production. Pakmaya’s first factory was established in 1973 in İzmit-Köseköy, beginning with fresh yeast production and later expanding to dry yeast. The company promoted widespread use of commercial yeast in Turkey’s bakery market through extensive nationwide marketing.

Starting exports to Iran, Pakmaya now supplies consumers in over 130 countries across 5 continents. Today, the company operates 4 yeast factories (3 domestic, 1 international) and 2 liquid-powder production facilities, maintaining the highest international hygiene and quality standards. With cold storage warehouses, refrigerated trucks, and a strong sales network, Pakmaya delivers high-quality service across Turkey.

Environmental efforts comply with ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System. The company also holds BRC Global Food Safety Standard, ISO 9001 Quality Management System, and ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System certifications.

Subsidiary As Gıda Üretim ve Pazarlama A.Ş. effectively implements quality and food safety systems throughout the production process from raw materials to product delivery.
