History

Founded in 1960 at Istanbul's historic Golden Horn by Mr. Habip BAYRAK, Çeksan Shipyard began with the construction and maintenance of small wooden and steel vessels. Over the decades, the company evolved—shifting to steel shipbuilding in 1979, relocating to Tuzla Bay in 1986, and expanding rapidly through the 1990s.

Still guided by the BAYRAK family, now in its third generation, Çeksan carries forward more than 60 years of maritime expertise—combining tradition, innovation, and craftsmanship to serve the needs of the global shipping industry.
