In 1958 Ekrem Er?etin began producing rose oil with a single distillation unit installed at his factory in the city.
The initial quantity was only a few kilograms. Subsequently the production reached 200 kg. of rose oil in 1974. Thus, Er?etin became one of the major suppliers of Europe, U.S.A. and Middle East. In 1983 Er?etin Gül Ya?? A.?. (Er?etin Rose Oil Inc.) was established. Rose concrete and the first rose absolute production units of Isparta were installed during the period of new investments in 1985. First steps to improve quality control and R&D were also taken in 1987 at the same time a gas chromotography device was utilised at the factory for the first time in Isparta.
Strengthened by the partnership established with IFF since 2008,investments and R&D studies keep on improving continuously.
