Esat Engin, who produced the sprouts of plants such as soybean, broccoli, alfalfa, lentils, radishes and arugula for the first time in Turkey, then began to pack the fruits he dried with natural methods and sell them in large chain markets. Engin is an entrepreneur who produced seedless watermelons for the first time in Turkey. Engin, who started business life after ending his professional football career, is an entrepreneur who has made it his mission to achieve the first of everything.
While he was a talented football player who used to play in the midfield of Bayburtspor,
Esat ENGİN, who started trading in 1994 thanks to a Hong Kong businessman he met after quitting football, was initially importing many products from the Far East that were not available in Turkey. Previously, it was importing ingredients used by Chinese restaurants such as egg noodles, Peking Duck, pineapple, cashew and asparagus from abroad. Then he thought, "Why shouldn't we produce fresh soybean sprouts here?"
Since fresh soybean sprouts had not been produced in Turkey before, he first went to the Far East and made observations, and visited China and Thailand. On his return, he started production in the facility he established in Istanbul. Then he moved his facility to Antalya to be involved in agriculture.

In addition to soybean sprouts, Engin also produces cress, arugula, radish, alfalfa, lentils, peas, wheat sprouts and wheatgrass.
It dried fruits such as pears, quince, strawberries, apples, cherries, kiwis, bananas and oranges with natural methods and made them available on market shelves and school canteen shelves to contribute to the healthy nutrition of children.
Engin's initiatives are not limited to these. He produced seedless watermelon for the first time in Turkey. Again, Esat ENGİN is the first person to market pomegranates in packages in Turkey by granulating them.
