“The heavy industrial sector is thriving, and there is robust demand for logistics services, especially in supporting large-scale infrastructure projects, energy, and heavy industry,” says Bahadir Erdil, global projects director and Turkey managing director for Logistics Plus. Bahadir was interviewed for the latest Turkey Country Report in the January/February 2025 edition of Heavy Lift & Project Forwarding International magazine. Bahadir says Turkey is making impressive strides in several energy sectors. “The first nuclear power plant is nearing completion, and tenders for the second and third plants are expected soon. In addition to this, there has been steady investment in geothermal, wind, and solar energy, not only for domestic projects but also for exports.”
Yuriy Ostapyak, Global COO for Logistics Plus, was honored to speak to the attendees during the final “Rebuilding Turkey and Developments in Ukraine” panel discussion. Maria Czerwinski, Pasha Nayda, Gib Loesel, and Scott Frederick from LP also attended in support of the forum.

Logistics Plus (LP) Turkey was featured in the May 2023 edition of the UTA Lojistik Magazine titled ‘Project Transportation Will Be Doubled In Turkiye.’ The LP Turkey team was featured in the magazine’s editorial (pages 28 & 29) and advertising (page 11) content.
Logistics Plus Global Projects Director Bahadir Erdil commented on the potential growth for the various industries in Turkey. “Turkiye is poised to become a major player in the global manufacturing market, particularly in the areas of power grid, gas tanks, wind energy, and cement plant components. The wind energy industry is also an area of significant growth in Turkiye. The country’s favorable climate and geography have made it an ideal location for wind farms, and Turkish companies have become leading producers of wind energy components, including blades, towers, hubs, and foundations. With its strong focus on renewable energy, Turkiye is well-positioned to become a key player in the global wind energy market.”

The Aegean Forest Foundation, which was established in 1995; offers projects, practices, and trainings for the creation and sustainability of new forest areas, forest fires, land degradation, desertification, floodplain improvement, climate change, protection of biodiversity, rural development, adaptation of low carbon emission technologies, renewable energy, and energy efficiency working to raise awareness.
Our foundation carries out its forestation activities within the framework of the protocols it signed with the Ministry of Forestry. In 26 years, we have enabled nearly 12 million saplings to become trees and mix with the forest on an area of 75 thousand decares.
The saplings we planted when we were founded, the size of a pencil, have turned into trees today and mixed with the forests. This painting is our pride.
You created the “LOGISTICS PLUS MEMORIAL FOREST” by donating 10 thousand saplings to our İzmir Kırkgeçit afforestation project, where 50 thousand saplings were planted on 35 hectares of land.
Thank you for the support you give to our forests, which is the greatest legacy we can leave to future generations.
