Hanel's roots trace back to 1948 when Hasan Hüseyin Özyer and Ömer Özyer traveled from village to village trading fabrics, and to the opening of their textile shop in 1955.

Hasan Hüseyin Özyer opened his first jewelry manufacturing and sales shop. It grew day by day, leading to the opening of a second store.

Ömer Özyer, along with his father, established and developed their business, which he later passed on to his sons, Hasan, Süleyman, and Faruk Özyer.

Özyer brothers ventured into a different sector by launching their first fuel station.

The first venture into the tourism sector took place with the Asena Village hotel in the Hisarönü region of Fethiye.

The jewelry sector was expanded with the opening of Marmaris Gold Center, Telmessos Gold Center, and Bodrum Gold Center stores, respectively.

Real estate investments and sales were initiated under the Hanel House brand in Fethiye, the Artev Global brand in Bodrum, and the Priyen İnşaat brand in Kuşadası.
