Industry and Technology Minister Mustafa Varank worked overtime on New Year’s Eve with couriers working in difficult conditions. He became the courier in Ankara of Getir, one of the first Turcorns in Turkey with the investment it received from abroad. Varank, wearing courier clothes, distributed orders by motorcycle.
They were surprised to see Varank
Minister Varank went to Şerife Bacı Girls’ Dormitory in Altındağ, where Ebru Parti, a third-year student studying Economics at Ankara Social Sciences University, delivered the ice cream, chips and drinks he ordered on time.
Minister Varank, a university student who does not know him, stated that he entered the new year with couriers to the Party and said that he was the Minister of Industry and Technology. The party asked Minister Varank, “Really?” He couldn’t hide his surprise. When Minister Varank asked how many rooms they had in the dormitory, the Party replied, “Eight”.
Getir bought the German rival Gorillas!
Getir, which serves both in our country and successfully represents our country abroad, bought its German rival Gorillas Technologies.
Togg painting gifted
Minister Varank presented the painting to the room where the Party was staying, commemorating the removal of Turkey’s Car Togg from the mass production line. Along with the young girl, Varank presented her roommates with bags containing TUBITAK’s scientific and cultural publications.
Minister Varank said that he met with the boss and said that these orders will not be charged and the payment will be refunded, “Have a good year, say hi to your friends.” said. Learning that the dormitory has a capacity of 570 students, Varank also wished the dormitory staff a good year.
I hope they give good stars
Varank, who delivered the order, saw his picture as a courier in the Getir application and said, “I hope they give good stars. We didn’t get any money either.” he made everyone laugh. After a while, Minister Varank’s words “If you are satisfied with the order, give us a star”, who talked to the student on the phone, made him smile.
Varank then left the dormitory and moved to Getir’s distribution center in Etlik. Bring to Varank Co-founder Tuncay Tütek and the authorities accompanied him. Varank, in his statement here, said, “It is not an easy job. For once it’s cold. We saw how hard our friends put in. I think we satisfied the customer. Because we gave the products for free. Agreed with the boss. He wouldn’t take any money. We also brought gifts. They give 5 stars on our first delivery, I think we did a good job.” said.
We wanted to raise awareness: Talking with the couriers at the center and listening to their wishes, Varank made the following assessments: “We wanted to spend New Year’s Eve with them and ask about their memories, so that there is a little awareness of what our courier friends are going through. It was a different experience for us as well.
They work without saying snow or winter: Our courier friends are working with great effort so that our citizens can safely receive their products in their homes without saying snow or winter. Their wishes come up from time to time. Different companies have different applications. As the government, we always have a full agenda when talking about our courier friends and what we can do to make their lives easier.
2022 was not an easy year. At a time when we said we got rid of the pandemic, an energy crisis broke out in the world, which started with the Russia-Ukraine war. The economic effects of this are shaking the whole world. In this area, too, we have tried so far to do whatever we can for our fixed-income citizens to take the necessary steps regarding the minimum wage or in the fight against inflation. Hopefully we will continue in 2023.
I hope 2023 will be a peaceful and happy year. I wish a happy new year to all our colleagues at work. Since they work at night and work during the day without saying snow or winter, our citizens can lead a much more comfortable life in peace and security. I thank them very much.
Minister Varank also offered baklava to the Getir couriers in the center and gave various gifts.
