Boyner

Boyner Group is one of two major groups, alongside Beymen Group that grew out of Osman Boyner's textile and clothing manufacturing and retailing enterprises. "Boyner" is also the name of the Boyner Group division Boyner Büyük Mağazacılık, which operates the Boyner department store chain.

History
Ali Osman Boyner co-founded Altınyıldız (Boyner Holding today) in 1952 with the idea to introduce Turkish fabric to the world and started exporting in 1956. At the end of the 1960s, Boyner began manufacturing ready-to-wear clothing to fill a gap in the Turkish market for quality goods. After long research, he planted the first seeds of the upscale department store Beymen, collaborating with friend and fashion designer Kerim Kerimol and Italian fashion house owner Silvano Corsini. Beymen's first store, featuring its private-label products, opened in 1971 in Şişli, Istanbul. From there, Beymen continued to open new stores and compete with Vakko in the upscale department store business.

Boyner Group thus focused from 2019 on five businesses, as shown in the table below. As of 2024 the Boyner Group brands are organized slightly differently than in 2019.

Divisions
The retail store divisions include Boyner Büyük Mağazacılık (7 store formats), BR Mağazacılık (2 formats), and Brooks Brothers stores in Türkiye and some other countries.

The Boyner Büyük Mağazacılık A.Ş. (or simply "Boyner") as of May 2024, operates:
