Where did it all begin
The banker left his position without fear or pity because intensive work for 15 years took time and energy. Uletar became interested in the production of strawberries, which can be grown without soil.
He first saw this method in one of the cities of Turkey, when he went on one of the tours. When he returned home, with the help of his friends, he built a multi-story greenhouse for strawberries on his plot.
Together with his family, the former banker planted about 230,000 strawberry bushes on 11 hectares.
Thus began the cultivation of berries on an industrial scale. Gokhan Uletar produces enough strawberries to export to Bulgaria, Romania, Kuwait, and Qatar through local suppliers. Uletar is very happy to have left the banking service and now spends a lot of time in nature.
Record harvest
The businessman says that 20 more people work with him in the greenhouse. Since the beginning of the year, 30 tons of berries have been harvested in the greenhouse and it is planned to harvest 150 tons by the end of the year. One strawberry bush gives about a kilogram of berries during the season.
Great demand
The businessman says that now the demand for strawberries is very high and continues to grow. The quality of strawberries is very high, so often call with offers to buy berries.
Requests come from all over the country from the largest companies.
Demand is growing, and in the near future, Uletar plans to increase the scale of greenhouses, create a production network and receive from all greenhouses at least 200 tons of berries per year.
He is sure that he has won over his customers with high-quality strawberries and their reasonable price.
