Trio Deniz acquires Jeanneau sailboat distributor
Trio Deniz, a representative of Jeanneau motoryachts in Turkey, has acquired Top Leisure, Turkey’s distributor of Jeanneau sailboats, bolstering Jeanneau’s presence in Turkey.
Trio Deniz is an authorised dealer of yachting brands including Sanlorenzo, Bluegame, Prestige, Sacs, Ryck Yachts, Hanse, Moody and Excess, as well as Jeanneau. With over 70 members of staff, the company was launched in 2005 in Istanbul, before expanding with offices and after-sales service points located in Bodrum and Gocek.
Murat Bekiroğlu, Chairman of Trio Deniz, said:
“We’re excited to elevate Top Leisure further and invest in its Marmaris and Istanbul locations.”
Top Leisure has represented Jeanneau’s French yacht brand in Turkey for nearly 30 years, and the acquisition was finalised on the retirement of its chairman İskender Akbaş.
The merger will add Top Leisure’s facility at Albatros Marina in Marmaris to Trio Deniz’s existing locations in southern Turkey.
Top Leisure Founder İskender Akbaş said:
“I’m pleased to pass Top Leisure into trusted hands and believe it will reach even greater success under Trio Deniz.”
“We extend our heartfelt thanks to İskender Akbaş for his invaluable contributions,” Dubois remarked, welcoming a promising new chapter for Jeanneau in Turkey.”
Celebrating its 25th anniversary, Trio Deniz continues its growth journey with this acquisition, advancing its reputation as one of Turkey’s premier yachting companies.
Trio Deniz is actively expanding its marine industry investments. The company recently made strategic equity investments in Viravira, Turkey’s leading online yacht charter marketplace, and Vanemar, a cutting-edge boat tracking system, further solidifying its presence and innovation within the Turkish maritime sector.
