D&R


D&R is a retail company based in Turkey. It was established in November 1996 as a joint venture between Doğan Holding and the Raks Group, and the company name is derived from the initials of these two organizations. D&R opened its first store in the Erenköy neighborhood of Istanbul in May 1997. It sells electronic products, films, stationery materials, books, music albums, toys, and various gift items. As of April 2019, it has a total of 205 stores in 50 provinces across Turkey.
In 2013, D&R acquired Elektronik Bilgi İletişim Hizmetleri, the company that owned the online book and media sales platform İdefix.

Criticism

In March 2025, following the arrest of Istanbul Metropolitan Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and the subsequent protests, boycott calls were made against brands owned by Turkuvaz Media, known for its closeness to the government. CHP Chairman Özgür Özel, in a statement, targeted companies including D&R and İdefix, inviting citizens not to shop there. Campaigns were organized on social media with the hashtag #DRBoycott, with many protestors boycotting brands within the Turkuvaz Group.
