Headquartered in Turkey, GLOBOWAX now operates in 12 different countries and leads the sector with nearly 100 contracted customers across Turkey.

We combine our 20 years of experience in the car care and detailing sector with unique, innovative solutions for international markets. Leveraging Turkey's geopolitical advantages, we can serve both European and Middle Eastern markets simultaneously. This strategic position makes GLOBOWAX an exceptional choice for investors and customers alike.
We continue our mission to represent the Turkish brand on the international stage by offering franchise opportunities worldwide. The growing number of cars and the rapid expansion of the automotive sector in Turkey are increasing the daily demand for professional car wash and detailing services. With over 25 million cars currently in Turkey, this vast potential represents a significant opportunity for both our brand and our investors.
Profitability and Sustainability of the Car Care Sector
The car care and detailing industry is distinguished by its high liquidity and labor-intensive business model. This sector offers investors high profitability with low operating costs, while catering to a constantly growing customer base. Both in Turkey and globally, car owners' aesthetic concerns and their desire to add value to their cars ensure this sector is always in high demand.

With eco-friendly solutions, water-saving mobile services, fleet management, and more, GLOBOWAX is leading the industry from a sustainability perspective as well.

Our company and partners, with their extensive global logistics network, provide GLOBOWAX's global operations with significant speed and flexibility. Our door-to-door logistics solutions enable our investors to reach every corner of the world with the power of our brand.

The resulting name, GLOBOWAX, perfectly encapsulates our mission of 'Shining the World'—a commitment to beautifying the world and adding value to cars. We invite our investors to become part of this vision. With our 20 years of experience and leadership position in the industry, you too can be a part of our success story!
