The Ottoman Bazaar was founded by Sefa Topal, an experienced entrepreneur who entered the tourism industry in 2014 with a vision to create a brand that blends the rich heritage of the Ottoman Empire with a global identity. Inspired by Istanbul’s cultural landmarks such as the Grand Bazaar and Egyptian Bazaar, The Ottoman Bazaar was born — a name that carries both tradition and international recognition. With a strong logo and identity, the brand quickly grew into a trusted name for authentic Turkish products.
Since 2023, our physical store in Taksim, Beyoğlu – Istanbul has welcomed thousands of visitors from all around the world. For those unable to visit in person, our online store theottomanbazaar.com makes our products accessible worldwide with fast and secure delivery.
