Who We Are?

The story of Ergün Emiroğulları creating the ERTEK brand:

ERTEK was founded in 1993 by our founder Ergün Emiroğulları with the goal of ‘Technology-Quality-Service.’ However, Ergün Emiroğulları’s first step in his professional career dates back much earlier; it began in 1972 at Lefke Male Art School.

After his electrical training at the art school, in 1976, he was sent to Turkey, to the Baykal Machinery facilities in Bursa, for vocational training with state support. Upon his return, before starting college in 1977, he worked at Hakkı Nasipoğlu’s company. However, due to the political conditions of the time, he had to leave his education in Ankara in 1980 and return to Cyprus.

In 1983, he took his first step in the private sector with Yıldız Elektrik partnership. He considers these years as a struggle to stand under difficult conditions at a young age.

In 1988, he served as the Electrical Department site supervisor for the Jasmine Court Hotel project at Pearl Construction Ltd., owned by Asil Nadir. These projects facilitated the arrival and implementation of advanced technologies in Cyprus. The completion of Jasmine Court Hotel was significant in terms of professional experience.

Next, he took on all electrical works of AN Graphich (Kıbrıs Gazetesi), the largest printing and newspaper facility in Northern Cyprus, owned by Asil Nadir, laying the foundations for ERTEK. It operated under the name ‘Doğa Elektrik’ until it was registered as ERTEK Electrical Systems Ltd. in 1993.

Initially, through the hard work and sacrifices of Ergün Emiroğulları and his team, ERTEK strengthened quickly. They actively participated in factories and large construction projects, using new technologies to solve complex engineering challenges.

Since the beginning of its service life, management and staff, engineers, and workers have worked together, shaping ERTEK’s sincere and collaborative management style.
