Koç Holding celebrates 100 years with industrial history exhibition

The ‘Yerli Sanayi, Uluslararası İtibar’ (Domestic Industry, International Reputation) exhibition has opened at the Mustafa V. Koç Building of the Rahmi M. Koç Museum to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Koç Holding.

Spanning from 1926 to the present, the exhibition uses a chronological layout to trace the group’s evolution from early Republican-era industrial ventures to global technology investments. The display features approximately 300 objects, including rare archival documents, period photographs, and everyday items such as early refrigerators, tractors, and automobiles.

Key highlights include a 1/18 scale diorama of 1990s Turkey by İnanç Benlioğlu and various industrial artifacts from brands like Arçelik, Aygaz, and Tofaş. The exhibition aims to document the history of production alongside the social impact of these technologies on daily life, while also showcasing the group’s export network spanning 154 countries.
