Shipping Services in Kazakhstan
Logistics Bridge Reaching to the Heart of Central Asia
Kazakhstan is not only the world's largest domestic road country, but also at the heart of Turkey's Central Asian strategy. In 2023, bilateral trade volume exceeded $ 4 billion and this figure is growing every year with collaborations in sectors such as energy, construction, agriculture and defense industry.
But shipping to Kazakhstan is not as usual a route as Europe. The distance is long (about 4,500 km by road from Istanbul to Almaty), the route is multinational (Turkey → Georgia → Azerbaijan → Kazakhstan) and the seasonal conditions (especially icing in winter) should be carefully planned. This is where multimodal transport and an experienced partner are essential.
As Fatih Group Logistics, we bring together three basic methods, namely road, railway (BTK line) and project transportation, on this route. Because a transformer, a textile party or a factory line you send to Kazakhstan - all require different logistics strategies.

Fatih Group Logistics is a Kazakhstan transportation company that has been operating in the international transportation sector since 2006, is based in Ankara and has a branch in Istanbul. We are actively using the BTK (Baku-Tbilisi-Kars) railway line, which is the most critical logistics artery between Turkey and Central Asia. We also have regular road trips.

We speed up border processes by coordinating with our local agencies on crossings through Georgia and Azerbaijan. Because we know: Every day, every hour and every document on the Kazakhstan route is critical.
