The deal closed on Wednesday. Financial details have not yet been disclosed.
“Partnering with Carlyle will enable TVK to expand capacity and enable the production of more sophisticated vessels at a faster rate than what we could have achieved alone,” said Can Topsakal, TVK’s co-founder and chief executive.
Topsakal founded TVK in 2005 with businessmen Naim Kocer, and former production manager of Turkey’s largest shipyard, Turgut Atagun.
