Bossa is a Turkish textile corporation. 32% of the company's capital is traded on the Istanbul Stock Exchange. 90,91% of the total amount of shares are owned by the company Akkardan Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş.[1][2][3]

Business and activities

Bossa has three manufacturing facilities, offering denim and other formal and casual fabrics, with an annual total production capacity of 84.5 million meters in spinning, weaving, dyeing and finishing. Bossa Ticaret ve Sanayi İşletmeleri was founded in 1951 in the city of Adana as a partnership between the Sabancı and Bosnalı families, hence the name Bossa. The first operation was a flour mill but they quickly moved into printing and producing textiles. By 1986 they had two textile plants, a yarn factory in the city of Kahramanmaraş, a denim factory, and have since expanded to five plants including one dedicated to producing shirt material. In 2008 Sabancı Holding transferred ownership of Bossa to the Akkardan Group.[4]
