"As Teknosa, we successfully grew above the market in 2023 with our focus on digitalization and sustainability. We have left behind a year in which we continued our strong growth in the fields of air conditioning and solar energy systems with our İklimsa business unit, while accelerating our investments in omnichannel to become a digital-first company in the retail sector. We have started using Gen AI in our operations, which will increase efficiency and competitiveness.
In 2023, we had a strong topline growth where our revenues increased by 45% in real terms, reaching to 47.3 billion TL and our net profit realized as 748 million TL, with a 43% growth in real terms compared to previous year. We also managed to achieve above-market growth in e-commerce and increased our Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) by 68% in real terms, to 10.1 billion TL. I congratulate my entire team who contributed to this success.
With the aim of perfecting the customer experience in omnichannel, we prioritized our technology and digitalization investments in 2023 and made a record CAPEX of 582 million TL with a 69% growth in real terms. While we continue our investments on the online channel, we reflected our digital concept in 17 new stores in 2023 to meet the rising "experience-oriented retail" trend all over the world.
In line with our goal of reaching 'Net Zero Emission' by 2050, we have increased our score to A- (leadership) level in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Climate Change program, one of the most important reporting platforms in the world. In 2024, we will continue to move forward with the aim of creating a positive impact on the environment, society and people, and to create increasing value for our stakeholders in our ecosystem, investors, our sector and our country with our strong investment plan of 1 billion TL."
