“Today, we export to 73 airlines and travel companies across 51 countries on six continents. There is almost no region left in the world where we do not export technology. With a well-analyzed vision and a mission built on strong foundations, we have made significant contributions to software throughout our 30-year journey. We have transformed our country into one of the most established players in the global airline and travel technologies industry, earning recognition worldwide. Thanks to our visionary perspective and highly competent team, we have become a global pioneer transforming every aspect of aviation.”
Highlighting that Hitit has long been one of the Turquality-supported companies under the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Trade, Ms. Gökman continued: “The grant and branding program provided by our Ministry, first under Turquality and later under e-Turquality has been a major driving force in our marketing efforts, especially in recent years.
Within the aviation and travel industries, which have undergone a challenging period starting with the pandemic and continuing long after, Hitit stood out through the value we place on our employees; our strong sense of responsibility, and the powerful partnerships we have built with our Partner airlines. Today, we have become a company providing technology to 51 countries across six continents, continuing to grow every quarter. I would like to thank all Hitit team and all our stakeholders who share this journey with us; this success belongs to all of us.
Türkiye has built a strong export capacity in software and informatics services in recent years. Hitit’s success stands out as a significant indicator of the growing global presence of local technology companies.
