Digital Agency for Şalpazarı, Trabzon
Measured digital steps for hazelnut growers, cooperatives and local businesses in the Ağasar valley.
Şalpazarı is an inland district in western Trabzon, often called the Ağasar valley and home to a sizeable Chepni community. Most households depend on hazelnut orchards, while the town centre serves the surrounding villages with shops, workshops and services.
What makes sense here
- A complete Google Business Profile for shops, garages, pharmacies and restaurants.
- A WhatsApp Business catalogue and, later, a simple order page for roasted hazelnuts and hazelnut paste.
- A shared brand and packaging for cooperatives, with honest origin details instead of slogans.
- Calm, regular social media that reaches people from Şalpazarı now living in larger cities.
How we work
Racoun has been based in Ataşehir, Istanbul, since 2012; we have no office in Şalpazarı. We work through video calls, screen sharing and our client panel, and plan shoot days around the harvest. Websites and stores are coded on our own platform with no monthly e-commerce licence. The first meeting is free and we take no media commission.
Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in Şalpazarı?
No. Our only office is in Ataşehir, Istanbul. We work online and plan visits when a photo or video shoot is needed.
Is an online store necessary for a small grower?
Not at first. A Business Profile and a WhatsApp catalogue are usually enough; a small order page can follow once demand is steady.
