Yusuf Ozbal from Zeki's Turkish Bread is at the Grey Lynn Farmers Market every Sunday.
We have a variety of Turkish products including wood-fired Turkish bread, pizza bases, olives, ready-to-eat Turkish food such as borek and gozleme,
a range of dips, baklava, Turkish delight and more.
How long have you been making your products?
The business started operating in 1998, but we only started going to markets three years ago.
Where did the business begin?
In the beginning the business started in Penrose and has developed over the years. In 2007, we came to a decision to move to a bigger factory as the production area in Penrose was fairly small and we have relocated
to Henderson.
What’s the biggest business decision you have had to make?
Moving to Henderson was the biggest business decision for us as this has enabled us to develop the business further and reaching out more customers.
What’s your favourite way to relax after work?
Chilling at home with a glass of wine while watching television.
Where is your favourite New Zealand holiday spot?
Taupo is my favourite holiday spot.
What’s your favourite thing about coming to the Grey Lynn Farmers Market?
Environment I would say. The market has a beautiful atmosphere and nice people.
