Dear Stake-holders,

I am pleased and excited to share the new image of our Web site with you; I believe that we are now closer to you by introducing to you the products and services provided by Demirayak Group of Companies.

As a result of a competition that lasts for about fifty years, Demirayak Group of Companies is now among Turkey's Top 500 Companies with its turnover of USD 152 million.

We have dedicated the Year 2009 to restructuring works and investments, which will carry us forward to our future targets.

As for Dempaş, it will continue growing with new investments in 2009 as before.

As we evaluate Demirayak Group of Companies, we do not just measure our success on the basis of figures and financial results. Nevertheless we believe in the need for getting established and rooted as a business entity for sustainable success, we focus on our efforts in that direction. We regard as a chance for competition the falling inflation which forces companies to achieve operational profits, seeing that our operations which are going on for many years in this direction will carry us forward to a privileged position in our sector. We attach great importance to the right examples and stories of success around us as the shareholders and professional staff of an organization that learns things all the time and we are determinedly marching on our way with our stakeholders, which are specialists and leaders in their respective fields.

In conclusion, our growing turnover and investments, take on their real values thanks to our investments we have made in human resources and technology. By developing long-term strategies, rather than short ones, and by further raising the standards for success with the advantage enjoyed by us through our restructuring process, we aim at becoming a company with a turnover of USD 300 million by 2010.

We will never compromise on our basic values while attaining this target; we will continue making contributions to the region and Turkey, being fully aware of our social responsibility.

Hoping to share news on innovations by Dempaş and its adventure into transformation in the near future, I extend my best wishes to all.

With my deepest regards...

Şükrü Demirayak
President & CEO
