The story begins in the misted mountains of the Eastern Black Sea. To be born in Çifteköprü is to learn early the tempo of land, the weight of a kept word, and the visible return of labour.
Çifteköprü and family
His father was a respected farmer; his mother came from a rooted Laz family. Early mornings in the fields and the weight of a kept word at the dinner table formed character.
Land and word
In Artvin, land is not only livelihood; it is a measure of time. That “word” and “result” stand side by side in Şener’s business ethics is an extension of this early discipline.
Opening to Istanbul
Leaving for Istanbul after secondary school opened the second act. The path that now reaches international investment is fed by the same root: respect for the land, a kept word, assets built for the long horizon.
