In recent company developments, previous majority owner Dogan Sirketler Grubu Holding A.S. completed the sale and transfer of its approximately 69.83% controlling equity stake in Celik Halat ve Tel Sanayii A.S. to a consortium led by Artas Insaat Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. and Betatrans Lojistik Insaat Taahhut Madencilik Ticaret A.S.
