In Turkey, there are two main reigons where organized crime most associated: the Trabzon region (in Northen Turkey / Black sea) and the Southeastern Anatolia region. Ethnic Turkish criminals are mostly linked with the Trabzon clans. A Turkish friend of mine says that Turks refer to people from the Trabzon as "Laz" after the Georgian tribe who lived in the area. Today, the vast majority of "Laz" would already describe themselves as Turkish. Trabzon has several criminal clans located in cities such as Rize, Sürmene and Of. Black Sea crime families have a presence in Europe, mainly in the Netherlands, Belguim, Germany, Austria. The aforementioned place, although a small village, is home to perhaps the most powerful of the Black Sea crime families called the "Oflu Clan". İsmail Hacısüleymanoğlu became their 'godfather'. In the 90s, the Oflu Clan controlled a  significant part of the heroin trade in Amsterdam and was involved in other racketeering activities in the local Turkish community.
 

On the other hand, the clans from the Southeastern Anatolia region are predominantly Kurds. Many major crime families operate from the area.The most famous is the Baybasin Clan, but there are other families such as Aksoy, Aydınlı, Cantürk, Güven, Kocakaya, Koylan, Özdemir, Polat, Uğur, Toprak, Yildirim, Demir, Konuk, Kaya, Senar.As with Trabzon based criminal groups, many of these Kurdish clans are also active in the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. When you do a study of Turkish organised crime in London, you will find that the vast majority of the infamous North London Turkish crime families are actually linked to clans from south-eastern Anatolia and are actually Kurds.

Criminal groups with origins in Turkey are less active in Western Europe (where there is a strong Turkish immigrant community) and the Middle east. Turkish criminal groups arealso involved in a wide range of criminal activites internationally, most notably drug trafficking, especially heroin. In heroin trafficking, they were collaborating with Bulgarian mafia groups, which transported heroin further to countries such as Italy. other drug trafficking, illegal gambling, human trafficking, prostitution, criminal activities such as extortion, as well as Turkey, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, and the United Kingdom with major European countries such as Albania, carried out in a Turkish community.
 

Turkish gangs and mafias also cooperate with some Laz, Zaza and Kurdish gangs. Several Turkish mafias also accept non Turkish members. Some Turkish criminal syndicates originated in two known regions around the world: Los Santos and San Fierro, located on the south coast of Western America.
