Established in 2003, TAV Construction had an aim to become a leading brand in airport construction. A decade later, its vision was successful when it received the ranking as the World’s Largest Airport Contractor by the reputed Engineering News Record report. The company has undertaken projects worth US$16.2 billion in contract value.
TAV Construction focuses on building airports and related facilities as their main area of expertise. Its portfolio includes innovative and ultramodern airports which are functional and aesthetically attractive. They have also drawn from their technical knowledge in aviation and applied it to non-aviation projects, expanding their portfolio to futuristic tower projects as well. Its services include design, construction, project financing, procurement, and project management.
The company is a member of the TAV Group Company that was founded by two leading Turkish construction companies, Tepe Construction and Akfen Construction, in 1997. The main reason the two companies decided to collaborate was because of the acquisition of the build-operate-transfer tender of the Istanbul Ataturk Airport.
With the substantial growth in travel and tourism sectors in Turkey and internationally, along the increasing demand for more airports of the higher quality and technology, the founders of the Group decided to establish TAV Construction dedicated to airport construction.
Group President and CEO, Dr Engineer Mustafa Sani Sener, has led the company since 1997, drawing from his past experience managing many national and international projects. He is also currently a member of the Board of Directors of the Airports Council International (ACI) World and was elected as the President of Foreign Economic Relations Board’s Turkish-French Business Council in 2012.
