Connect to the world
Arzu Turgay
Textile engineer, brand strategist and lifelong learner. For twenty-two years I have connected brands, factories and people across Europe, the Americas and Asia.
“For me, the journey of growth is a never-ending process.”
I have worked in the automotive and textile industries for over 22 years, in global brand management, digital sales strategies, sustainable business transformation and system development. Today I work with leading fashion and lifestyle brands in different regions of the world on digitalization, innovation and sustainability.
My story is not only about business. This is where I share, in my own way, the subjects that inspire me.
More about meFour threads I follow
-
Life
The sea, the sun, yoga and long conversations over Turkish coffee. What keeps me curious and grounded.
-
Books
The books I have read and keep returning to, from Ikigai to the power of the mind.
-
Social Impact
Women’s empowerment, diversity and inclusion, mentoring young people, and a forest wherever possible.
-
Future
Digitalization, artificial intelligence and the evolution of human consciousness, and what they ask of leaders.
One thread, three regions
My work sits between global apparel brands and the factories that make their products. Every day it crosses EMEA, the United States and Asia, and since 2026 it has included apparel brands in the DACH region.
The portfolio I manage covers more than 800 apparel brands and retailers. The job is the same everywhere: understand what a brand needs and turn it into something a factory can make, responsibly.
My wish and my goal are to elevate both myself and the environments I am part of to a higher level of consciousness.
