Izmir Ataturk Organized Industrial Zone (IAOIZ) is one of the largest and most modern organized industrial zones in Turkey. It started operating in 1990. |
|
 |
The total area of our zone is 7.500.000m². 485 factories manufacture and 30.000 people are employed. 200 companies are exporters and there are 15 companies of direct foreign investment. In 2 years' time, the number of companies in the Zone will reach about 600 and the number of employees about 50.000. |
| Companies started using natural gas in November 2004. ATAER Power Plant was founded in 1996 in order to meet the continuous and high quality energy needs of the companies in the Zone. The capacity of the plant is 60 megawatts. The electric consumption is increasing in parallel with the development in the Zone. Having been operated with Naphtha until August 2003, the power plant has now been producing electricity with natural gas. |
|
 |
Waste Water Treatment Plant with a full computerized system has been operating at World standards, with a capacity of 21.000m³ / day. |
 |
SMEs Information, Service, Development Center (KOBIM) was established in 2003 in IAOIZ in order to inform and guide the resident SMEs in the Zone to benefit from the privileges and opportunities in foreign trade, investments, R&D supports, incentives and e-commerce. This application is the first one that no other organized industrial zones have in Turkiye. |
| IRC (Innovation Relay Center) project was commenced in April 2004 for the purpose of determining the technology level of SMEs in our zone, finding new technologies they need and conveying them, finding markets for the new technologies that SMEs produce, and encouraging them to participate in R&D projects. This project will last for 4 years and has a budget of 800 thousand Euros of which 50% is funded by EU, and the other 50% by EBILTEM (Ege University Science-Technology Application and Research Center), EBSO (Aegean Region Chamber of Industry), IAOIZ (Izmir Ataturk Organized Industrial Zone), and KOSGEB (Small and Medium Industry Development Organization). | |
| A service agreement was signed between IAOIZ and a private internet service provider in 2004 to bring an end to the problems experienced in ADSL (asymmetric) internet lines acquired by Turk Telekom and to provide a faster, continuous and lower-priced internet access, cheaper telephone services on internet, more than one e-mail address per company and constant e-mail service. Providing and conveying the information about the companies in the Zone and their sectors to the industrialists of the region are the principal missions of IAOIZ Management, along with electricity, water and natural gas distribution, providing construction and building usage licenses, waste collection, waste water treatment, environmental protection, forestation, road construction and maintenance and security services . Increasing the trade volume, especially exports of the Zone is of huge importance. For this very reason “Permanent Exhibition Center” was established in order to display the companies and the products produced in the Zone. It opened its doors in August 2004 and the products of 150 companies are exhibited on a 800 m² area. Established with the financial support of IAOIZ, there is a modern, fully equipped Social Security Institution Medical Center which serves 24 hours with 11 doctors. In the Medical Centre, all sorts of medical tests are run and the results are obtained on the same day. Furthermore, there is a fully equipped ambulance that serves 365 days / 24 hours with a doctor, a nurse and a driver and its costs are covered by the Zone. “Search and Rescue Team” that consists of 24 people trained by disaster experts, is ready for national or international disasters. The team has the NIBRA certificate that is valid in the European Union. To fulfill the qualified employee needs of the resident companies, IAOIZ Private Employment Agency serves free of charge. CVs, education levels, knowledge and experiences of the ones who apply for a job are recorded in detail and are directed to demanding companies. Apart from all these services, IAOIZ; as an institution which has always been in the knowledge of its social responsibilities, grants scholarships to 125 students every year. |
