About the Founder

Mechanical engineer (M.Sc., KIT) and founder of Industrialresell – deep technical expertise meets sales drive for industrial customers worldwide.

Burak Yildirim, M.Sc. Mechanical Engineering (KIT)

"Engineer by passion. Salesman by conviction."

As a mechanical engineer (M.Sc., KIT) and founder of Industrialresell, I combine deep technical understanding with genuine sales drive. I supply industrial customers worldwide with automation and control technology and know exactly what you need the components for — because I have developed machines myself, optimised processes and co-held a patent in robotics.

What you get: fast quotes, fair prices and a contact who thinks along instead of just processing.
