What I'm looking for

I'm open to international relocation and available for approximately 50% international travel. I’m seeking international sales and key account opportunities where I can develop export markets and grow customer accounts in flexible packaging.

At AKM Cardboard & Plastic Packaging Industry Inc., I manage an annual export portfolio exceeding USD 3 million across approximately 30 customers. I develop international accounts and markets, delivering approximately 15–20% annual sales growth through customer acquisition, account development and reactivation.

I translate customer requirements into flexible packaging solutions and coordinate specifications, production, quality, delivery and commercial follow-up across teams. Earlier, I supported export sales at Fitpack Packaging Solutions and import and commercial activities at Ege Teknik CNC Machinery.
