“The Turkish Shipowners’ Association has collaborated with Anka Marine Electronics to provide internet services to its members’ ships at special prices. Sharing his thoughts on the project, Anka Marine Partner Kadir Bora Genç said, ‘We are happy to be doing something beneficial for Turkish seafarers. We provide internet services to the ships of the Turkish Shipowners’ Association members at minimal cost. We also sincerely thank the Turkish Shipowners’ Association and its members for the trust they have placed in us.'”
“Instead of each member of the Turkish Shipowners’ Association individually researching internet services for their ships, the association established a committee with more expertise on the subject, appointed by the management, to conduct market research on behalf of its members. Anka Marine was also asked to submit a proposal. We met with them, made our presentation, and subsequently offered the Turkish Shipowners’ Association a beneficial deal. Thus, our collaboration began in a way that would be advantageous for the association’s members,” said Anka Marine Partner Kadir Bora Genç, who continued:
“Thanks to our collaboration with the Turkish Shipowners’ Association, members will have access to more affordable internet services. Although costs have decreased by 70% compared to the past, internet services on ships are still more expensive than those we use in our homes and offices. As Anka Marine, we are happy to reduce this cost at least for Turkish seafarers.
We provide Turkish Shipowners’ Association members with highly advantageous prices for Starlink antennas. We also offer internet packages ranging from 50GB to 25TB (terabytes) with a 12-month usage commitment, allowing members to choose the package that best suits their needs. Additionally, our internet package prices are provided to Turkish Shipowners’ Association members at very competitive rates.
Since we understand the importance of uninterrupted and secure internet access on ships, our proposal includes internet services supported by VSAT and GSM backup options, along with firewall protection, offering a highly comprehensive package to Turkish Shipowners’ Association members.”
