The foundations of our company were laid in 1971 in Elazığ when the deceased elder of our family Suphi Aşçı established the city's first and only spare parts company under the name of Aşin Ticaret. Our brand, born in Anatolia, has grown rapidly and moved from Elazığ to Istanbul in 1976. Entered the market as a retailer, our Company started foreign trade in the early 1980s after gaining sufficient experience, and strengthened its position as a wholesaler in the industry. Our company took the name Motor AŞİN in 1981, and became an important spare part supplier especially for bus companies in the 1980s.
We started our journey in a small store in Elazig, with our team of 300 people and our product portfolio of 1.5 million, we provide spare parts for passenger cars, light commercial vehicles and heavy vehicles in 70 countries on 4 continents. Our Headquarters and Warehouse are in Istanbul İkitelli, we have 4 branches in Istanbul Anatolian Side, Ankara, Izmir and Gaziantep.
