Your commercial bridge between the UK and Türkiye

ALESTA GLOBAL is a London-based management and business development consultancy. We work with Turkish businesses expanding into the UK and UK companies exploring entry into Türkiye, including exporters, manufacturers, retailers and growing SMEs.

We turn market-entry plans into practical commercial action: developing business relationships, negotiating B2B terms, representing clients locally and organising operational setup.

Whether you are entering a new market or building your existing presence, we focus on your business goals and the work needed to reach them.

From market entry to local operations

We assess market opportunities, develop entry plans and organise company and operational setup. We identify potential customers, distributors and commercial partners, prepare and support B2B negotiations, and advance commercial discussions towards agreement.

For companies that need a presence in the UK, we provide local representation through client meetings, trade fair support and ongoing commercial engagement. Our representation role and authority are agreed with you in writing.

We also plan warehousing and fulfilment operations, assess third-party logistics options and organise implementation with the selected providers.

Where premises are needed, we define your space, location and operational requirements. Property searches and transactions are handled by independent agents and regulated legal professionals appointed by you.

Strategy and capital for your next stage

Alongside our cross-border commercial work, we advise startups and growing businesses on investment readiness, fundraising preparation, management and growth.

We develop pitch materials, financial models and fundraising plans grounded in the business itself. We also provide strategic preparation and commercial analysis for mergers, acquisitions and exits, with specialist transaction work handled by the relevant advisers.

How we work

We start by understanding your business and goals, then agree priorities, deliverables and responsibilities together.

You can engage us for a defined project or for ongoing advice and local representation. We maintain clear communication, review progress regularly and stay involved through implementation. Where specialist expertise is needed, we bring in the appropriate professionals.

Why ALESTA GLOBAL

We have hands-on experience helping Turkish companies set up and operate in the UK, and we bring a London base and working knowledge of business practice in both markets.

We combine strategic thinking with direct involvement in commercial discussions and operational setup. You work with a clear point of contact and an agreed scope.

Confidentiality

Client confidentiality comes first. We do not publish client names, logos or identifiable project details, but we are glad to discuss relevant experience in a private conversation.
