Giresun's digital trade potential

Giresun is the quality capital of the hazelnut: the Giresun Tombul Hazelnut, protected by a geographical indication, is regarded as the finest hazelnut in the world and is priced on international markets as a quality benchmark. The city's economy rests largely on processing and exporting hazelnuts and hazelnut products.

What separates Giresun from neighbouring Ordu is not scale but quality: Ordu leads on volume while Giresun represents the premium standard. The 'Giresun Kalite' registration system protects that quality through QR-coded holograms and traceability — a strong and genuinely distinctive brand story to tell online.

The sector is processed in the organised industrial zone (OSB): the province is dense with hazelnut cracking, roasting and processing plants, while the port plays a key role in exports. A significant share of Türkiye's largest hazelnut exporters are Giresun companies; the city has a deep-rooted export culture in this field.

Beyond hazelnuts, fishing and seafood are part of both local gastronomy and local livelihoods; the food industry and regional products complete that production culture. Black Sea cuisine and regional specialities are a strong base for branding and e-commerce.

Tourism holds a rare asset: Giresun Island, the only island in the Black Sea, is a distinctive draw with its landscape and its mythological story. The highland pastures and green countryside also carry potential for nature tourism.

Giresun's opportunity is to turn its world-known reputation for quality into value online: the Tombul hazelnut's premium position is often lost in bulk exports and the quality difference is not fully reflected in the price. The right premium brand, a traceability narrative and multilingual e-commerce can sell that quality directly to boutique buyers and consumers, at the value it deserves.

How business is done in Giresun

Hazelnut traders and exporters together with producer families set the tone of Giresun's economy; business runs on the season, the harvest and the price, shaped by export agents and the commodity exchange. Your counterpart is the owner or the export manager, and quality, trust and continuity come first.

Because the reputation for quality is strong, premium positioning and a traceability narrative carry weight; interest rises once it is clear that branding will translate quality into price. The telephone and WhatsApp are the fast channels; in exports, certificates and standards are decisive.
