Updates

  • 2026-10-19 · Edited before publication: The source says Polinas is a Gözde Girişim portfolio company but does not say Yildiz Holding controls it; 'flexible packaging producer' is also not stated. The USD conversion should keep the source's precision: USD 4.52m. The Aktif Holding counterparty tag does not appear in the source and should be removed from the directory tags.
  • 2026-10-19 · Edited before publication: Facts and EUR conversions are correct. Company tagging is wrong: Aktif Holding appears nowhere in the source and should be removed. Yildiz Holding as subject is a stretch, since the buyer is Polinas, a Gözde Girişim portfolio company. Removed the evaluative 'for a small outlay'.
