He opened his first store secretly from his family | 55 Years of Business Life of Abdullah Kiğili

It was founded in Sultanhamam in 1938 to sell fabric and today it has become one of the leading brands of men's clothing in Turkey. Although his dream was to be an engineer, he gained his first experience of becoming a doyen of the industry by doing a coat tout during summer holidays. The feeling of being a young entrepreneur prevailed and he opened his first store, surprising his sick father, in Beyoğlu, the popular district of Istanbul. The young entrepreneur, who follows world trends, gave his surname "Kiğılı" to his brand, following the fashion of that period, even though he knew it would be difficult to pronounce. Today, "Kiğılı", which has its name written in golden letters in 200 stores in 70 provinces, 46 stores and 117 sales points in 51 countries, has become a world brand.
