Professional Summary
I am a Turkish national with 20+ years of professional experience working with international organisations in security management, operations, logistics coordination, and program administration across multiple countries (Yemen, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Pakistan, DRC and many more). While my entire career has been in the international/humanitarian sector, I have decided to diversify my income and build a private business portfolio as a second stream of revenue, with the medium-to-long-term goal of possibly transitioning fully into business ownership. Key strengths I bring as a future business owner: Strong operational and logistical background (fleet management, supply-chain coordination, contractor management, crisis operations)
Proven ability to manage large teams (up to several hundred staff and contractors) in high-pressure environments.
Excellent financial discipline, budgeting, reporting, and compliance skills developed in auditing and donor-reporting environments.
Multilingual (Turkish native, English fluent, working knowledge of other languages)
Very strong work ethic, detail-oriented, and comfortable implementing systems and processes from day one. -

Investment Criteria
I focus on profitable, cash-flow-positive small to mid-sized businesses with clean financials and growth potential, preferably in countries that offer investor residency or citizenship programs (Germany, Greece, Latvia, Portugal, Baltic states, UAE/Dubai, or other EU countries). Preferred sectors and characteristics: Established businesses with 3+ years of verifiable financials and consistent EBITDA of a minimum of 15 to 25%
Revenue range: USD 500 thousand to 10 million (comfortable up to USD 3 to 4 million acquisitions)
Sectors I particularly like:
– Transportation & logistics (taxi fleets, trucking, last-mile delivery)
– Hospitality (hotels, hostels, short-term rentals, cafes/restaurants)
– IT services, software, ecommerce, light manufacturing, retail chains.
– Service-based businesses with corporate contracts or recurring revenue.
Businesses that can support an investor/business visa or golden visa application (especially in Germany, Greece, and Latvia)
Low owner dependency, professional management/team already in place or easy to hire.
Real estate-backed businesses (company owns property) are a big plus.
Reasonable valuation (preferably below 4 to 5 times EBITDA)
What I dislike/avoid:
- Startups or pre-revenue companies.
- Heavily seasonal businesses or those dependent on government contracts/subsidies.
- Businesses with legal disputes, tax issues, or unclear ownership structure.
- High employee turnover industries (nightclubs, pure construction without recurring clients)
- Businesses where the owner must stay involved full-time for years.
- Over-leveraged companies or those with heavy bank debt. -
