From humble beginnings to global powerhouse with Nav24 and Microsoft

March 21, 2025

Many small companies dream of making it big one day, with operations across multiple countries and large-scale production facilities. However, scaling growth isn’t always easy––only 1 in 10 companies in Europe manages to scale on average by more than 10% annually, over a three-year period, and when it comes to high growth (more than 20% annual growth), this shrinks to 1 out of 24.

Turka Invest started as a small tortilla production company in Turkey and has since grown into an international enterprise, operating in over 60 countries. With more than 200 employees and three modern production plants covering 50,000 square meters, Turka’s commitment to quality has earned them global recognition. However, their rapid expansion introduced significant operational challenges in data accuracy, warehouse efficiency, and production tracking. To overcome these hurdles and enable future growth, Turka Invest turned to Nav24 for a scalable, cloud-based solution.

Nav24 is a leading ERP consultancy based in Poland, specializing in the implementation and support of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and Power Platform. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Business Applications, Nav24 has demonstrated their expertise in delivering tailored Microsoft solutions across industries such as manufacturing, trade, and distribution. With a proven track record of over 180 successful projects, the company is recognized for helping businesses enhance operational efficiency and gain a competitive edge. Nav24 has been a trusted Microsoft partner for more than 10 years, consistently participating in Microsoft-organized conferences, often as a speaker, further solidifying their position as a knowledgeable and innovative leader in the field.

Nav24 delivers a comprehensive digital transformation

Nav24 implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (SaaS version) and Microsoft 365 at Turka Invest’s headquarters, later rolling them out to the Spanish branch. This transformation standardized and automated critical business processes across production, logistics, and sales, eliminating inefficiencies that had previously kept Turka from additional growth.

To further enhance operations, Nav24 developed a multilingual, multi-company PowerApps application that records production data and component consumption in real time. This reduced errors and increased efficiency, ensuring precise tracking of manufacturing output. The implementation of the Tasklet Factory solution enabled mobile warehouse transaction registration, improving inventory tracking and component identification. Additionally, the Document Capture solution automated invoice processing, significantly reducing approval times and eliminating manual errors.

By integrating Power BI analytics and implementing a double-approval system, Nav24 helped Turka Invest achieve greater transparency and data accuracy, allowing for real-time monitoring and immediate error detection. This new digital infrastructure has positioned Turka Invest for long-term scalability and sustained operational efficiency.

Measurable operational improvements and future-ready growth

The implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 and supporting solutions led to significant operational improvements, allowing Turka Invest to gain better control over their processes and scale efficiently. By integrating automation and real-time data analytics, the company reduced errors, streamlined workflows, and enhanced productivity. Warehouse operations became more precise, production tracking more accurate, and decision-making more data-driven. Employees were able to focus on higher-value tasks rather than being bogged down by manual data entry and processing delays. These improvements also ensured compliance with industry regulations and enhanced overall business agility, preparing Turka Invest for continued global expansion.

• Production inventory accuracy increased to 97%.
• Production plan realization improved to 95%.
• Quality claims due to incorrect Bill of Materials reduced to zero.
• Machine failures reduced by 15% through real-time Power BI reporting.
• Warehouse inventory accuracy reached 99.5%.
• Raw material stock levels reduced by 28%, optimizing procurement efficiency.
• Food safety compliance and product traceability completion time reduced to under 4 hours.

Transitioning to cloud-based solutions provided Turka Invest with full flexibility and control over their operations, ensuring rapid adaptability to future market demands. With a streamlined digital infrastructure, the company is well-positioned for continued expansion into new global markets. The ability to access real-time data from anywhere has empowered leadership to make informed, proactive decisions. Moreover, the scalable nature of cloud-based solutions ensures that as Turka Invest continues their growth trajectory, the technology will seamlessly evolve alongside them. By eliminating costly inefficiencies and improving cross-border collaboration, the company is now better equipped to expand into new markets and maintain their competitive edge in the global food production industry.
