Egetürk Garlic Sausage (Sucuk)

Egetürk is a prominent brand specialized in traditional Turkish-style meat products, particularly sucuk (garlic sausage), pastırma, and salam. Founded in 1966 by Burhan Öngören in Frankfurt, Germany, the company was established to provide authentic Turkish flavors to the growing Turkish community in Europe. Since 1980, the brand has operated out of a massive, state-of-the-art production facility in Cologne (Köln), Germany, which remains its primary manufacturing hub.

Despite its deep Turkish cultural heritage and name, Egetürk is a German-based company. It has grown into a market leader in the European halal meat industry, known for its strict quality standards and traditional recipes. The brand remains under the ownership of the founding family through Egetürk Wurst- und Fleischwarenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG.

The company's success is rooted in its ability to combine traditional Turkish spice blends and curing methods with German manufacturing efficiency and food safety regulations. Today, Egetürk products are distributed globally, serving both European markets and international consumers looking for premium halal meat products.
