One Year Later: Doosan Bobcat Helped to Restore 553 Local Businesses in Earthquake-affected Turkey

At that time, Doosan Bobcat provided immediate help with its construction equipment and offered humanitarian aid to earthquake-affected areas by funding local nano- and micro-enterprises with a total value of 800,000 EUR through early recovery project.

The funding’s intention is to restore small businesses in order to provide services that are critical for the reconstruction process and the re-establishment of the local economy. As part of its commitment to support locally, the company has been partnering with People in Need, a humanitarian relief organization with global reach and a well-established presence in the affected areas.

This ongoing initiative is poised to reach hundreds of businesses and positively impact the lives of thousands of people,” said Scott Park, Vice Chairman and CEO at Doosan Bobcat.
