Our History
In 1973, the Karaca family entered the sector with a business established under the name Karaca Züccaciye by Hüseyin Karaca in Istanbul Süleymaniye. They started by creating patterns on glass products in a small workshop with 30 workers.
In the 1990s, Karaca began producing porcelain abroad using kaolin sourced from Limoges, France, home to some of the world's highest quality porcelains. In 1994, under its own brand, Karaca started producing stainless steel pots and cutlery sets in Istanbul, becoming a sought-after brand for its high-quality products in both steel and porcelain. Leading global manufacturing companies also began producing under the Karaca brand during these years.
In 2001, Karaca opened its first retail store in Akmerkez Shopping Mall in Etiler, meeting with Karaca enthusiasts.
In 2007, with the Fine Bone series, the brand achieved exceptional transparency in porcelain dinnerware, encouraging customers to opt for transparent porcelain.
Continuing to grow every year, Karaca acquired Emsan, a rooted brand of pots and small kitchen appliances, in 2008.
In 2014, Karaca opened its first international store in Baku, Azerbaijan.
Also, in 2014, it initiated the granite era with Biogranit. Due to its durability, non-stick and non-burn features, and being a healthy material, granite became adapted across the entire sector. This innovation transformed cooking habits, elevating a product group to a category.
