From a Family Business to a Worldwide Success
ES Localization Jsc., named after its co-founders’ initials Ercan Üç and Sırma Üç was established in 1994 as a software localization company and has since become the leading company in its field in Turkey.
A quickly developing company, ES established an office in Istanbul, Turkey, in 1994, followed by another in Cairo, Egypt, in 2004, and continues to take confident steps towards becoming the most successful localization company for regional languages. Since it was established, ES Localization has worked with many of the leading software and hardware companies in the world, achieving top-quality results that have left its many clients satisfied.
ES Localization has gained its current prominence in the localization world thanks mainly to our core business qualities, most notably on-time delivery, strong work ethic, integrity, and professionalism.
