Everything began in Papranik town in Macedonia...
Zaim Güllü, who was born in 1940, had no idea back then that he would be the leader of a major brand that is the product of a 100% domestic capital. After spending his childhood in a natural environment surrounded with animals, Zaim Güllü and his family moved to Sakarya in 1956. The first step was taken during those days; in 1958, they built a small workshop under their house. Here, they began to produce yoghurt and ayran in a delicate way and walked hundreds of kilometers around Sakarya by carrying the boxes by hand or bicycles.
The years went by as naive and clean as the great effort they displayed and the warm milk they produced. As of 1980, they began to expand their business; in addition to yoghurt and ayran, Zaim Güllü started to produce kasseri cheese.
