Sportswear Manufacturer Turkey | Activewear & Technical Fabrics

Özdemirteks is a Turkish sportswear and activewear manufacturer specializing in garment manufacturing, innovative knitted fabrics, technical textile development, design and product development. The company was established in 2000 by Özgür Karademir with a specific focus on bringing new products and concepts to the sportswear industry.

Based in Beylikdüzü, Istanbul, Türkiye, Özdemirteks combines apparel manufacturing with fabric and product development capabilities. The company states that it operates with more than 200 textile professionals, its own specialized design team and a production infrastructure serving both domestic and international customers.

Sportswear is particularly important to the company's positioning. Özdemirteks describes itself as one of Türkiye's representatives in the active sportswear segment and develops collections for both women's and men's sportswear, while its R&D activities focus on innovative, functional and sustainable fabrics.

The corporate About page currently states 10,000 m², whereas the homepage reports 12,000 m². For a current company profile, I would use the homepage's 12,000 m² figure because it appears to be the site's newer headline production figure.
