AKDO is a company built on a foundation of love, family and dedication. Twenty-five years ago, our CEO, Hakki Akbulak was looking for a way to stay connected with his brother, who at the time, was an ocean apart in Turkey. The pair decided that by founding a business together, they would remain connected in every aspect of their lives on a daily basis. As a natural born entrepreneur, Hakki asked himself, “what does Turkey have that America needs?” The answer, in short, was this: beautiful, abundant, natural stone.
