Format mix is by distinct content (Contents 7 d column); macro+mega share, repeat creator share, ad disclosure and co-authored post are over account-content rows (a post published jointly by two accounts is one content and two rows). Account-content rows: Karaca 136, Tefal 77, Emsan 60; posts and reels only: 81, 25, 14. Macro 250 K–1 M, mega 1 M+ followers. Repeat creator share: share of content produced by accounts that posted the brand 2+ times in the period. Ad disclosure: share of posts and reels carrying a #reklam / #işbirliği / #tanıtım tag; includes the 'Ücretsiz #reklam' tag on gifted products, excludes contents noted 'reklam değil/yok' (not an ad) or 'kendim aldım' (bought it myself) (stories are not part of this rate). Co-authored post: content published with Instagram's co-author feature. Plays are for reels only. ER = (likes + comments) rate, two separate medians: per follower for posts, per play for reels; the two use different denominators and are not comparable with each other. n = account-content rows entering the median; contents with hidden like counts excluded. Starlecta sector research · Instagram, Starlecta tracked-account universe · © 2026 Starlecta FZCO · Quote with the source; share unchanged; edits need written permission · starlecta.com/en/terms --- Competitive Analysis · Home and kitchen · 19 Oct – 25 Oct 2026 Method 02 ### Scope and method Data source, brand matching, media analysis and limits. Data source - Turkish Instagram accounts Starlecta tracks: about 12 thousand at the start of the week; the tracked base widened to about 51 thousand on 24–26 October; posts, reels and stories. - Period: 19 October – 25 October 2026 (7 days). Last 9-week series for the weekly trend (from the week of 24 August 2026). - In total 261 contents, 182 distinct accounts; 10 contents naming more than one brand were counted separately for each brand. - Followers, category and audience (gender, age, city) information come from Starlecta profile data. - Even if a brand's tag, mention and link appear several times in the same content, the content was counted once for that brand. - Posts from the brands' own accounts were not counted; contents removed for 19–25 October: Karaca 5 (5 stories); Tefal 4 (4 reels). Brand matching Brand and sub-brand account tags (@), hashtags and brand names in the description text. Brands were selected as the 3 brands with the most contents in the weekly ranking (tag and link matching; the brand's own account and deal accounts excluded). Frequently matched accounts: Karaca @karaca Tefal @tefalturkiye, @tefal Emsan @emsan Media analysis - 241 unique creatives were analysed visually: images directly, videos through the opening frame and a 4-frame summary. - 86 of the 90 reels in the period were analysed from the video itself: four frames, the opening frame and audio. The audio of the 56 videos with speech was transcribed; communication language was taken from these transcripts and the descriptions. - For each creative, content type, tone, product placement, setting, whether the creator is on camera, call to action and period/occasion were classified; one of the unique creatives could not be classified. - Repeats of the same image across different accounts (perceptual similarity) were grouped as a single creative. Limits and reading notes - The universe is not all of Instagram; absolute volumes are a lower bound. The number of tracked accounts grew over the last 9 weeks; weekly trends show direction. - For story contents, visibility is measured by content count; ad disclosure and performance are computed over posts and reels. Ad disclosure includes the 'Ücretsiz #reklam' tag on gifted products; contents noted 'reklam değil/yok' (not an ad) or 'kendim aldım' (bought it myself) do not enter the rate. - Sector news and deal/discount accounts were flagged separately; overlap and creative selections were prepared excluding these accounts. - A brand name appearing is not evidence of a paid collaboration. - The tracked account base widened on 24–26 October: posts and reels of the new accounts were completed 90 days back, while their stories exist from the day they were added. Therefore story counts are not directly comparable across weeks; the weekly change was counted with the same matching in both weeks.

Karaca 134 distinct contents / 7 d · 2,038 account-content rows / 9 weeks Peak: week of 7 Sep, 346 account-content rows Tefal 77 distinct contents / 7 d · 793 account-content rows / 9 weeks Peak: week of 12 Oct, 147 account-content rows Emsan 60 distinct contents / 7 d · 335 account-content rows / 9 weeks Peak: week of 12 Oct, 84 account-content rows 7-day analysis period Weekly number of account-content rows (a co-authored content is a separate row for each account; the distinct content count is in the comparison table) (weeks start on Monday), 24 August – 25 October 2026, n = 3,166 account-content rows. Each panel has its own vertical scale; see the previous page for levels across brands. The series shows nine weeks, from the week of 24 August to the report week, with the same matching. The tracked account base widened on 24–26 October: posts and reels of the new accounts were completed 90 days back, while their stories exist from the day they were added. Therefore story counts are not directly comparable across weeks; the weekly change was counted with the same matching in both weeks. The last point is the report week. Because the number of tracked accounts grew during the period, trends show direction; early weeks may look low.

Biggest rise in reels: Karaca Karaca's reels rows (account-content rows) rose from 59 in 12–18 October to 70 in 19–25 October (18.6%); Emsan's reels rows rose from 11 to 12, Tefal's fell from 22 to 21; the total content of the three brands fell as stories declined. Two weeks with the same matching, account-content rows: Karaca 200 → 136, Tefal 147 → 77, Emsan 84 → 60. Stories are affected by the widening of the account base on 24–26 October; reels were completed 90 days back. Reel of the week Excluding deal accounts, the sector's most-played reel was a Tefal reel posted on 24 October. The creator irons clothes; the on-screen text opens with a regret claim and turns into 'it irons so nicely', with the link in highlights. Creator 24 (15,108 followers): 1,577,722 plays, 3,196 likes, 111 comments; ER per play 0.21%. @tefalturkiye and #reklam [ad] in the caption. A Karaca reel from an account flagged as a deal account has more, with 1,882,567 plays. Story or reels? Karaca leaned on reels, Tefal and Emsan on stories; half of the three brands' analysed stories carry price, code or discount text. Story share: Emsan 76.7%, Tefal 67.5%, Karaca 41.0%. Price, code or discount text: in 22 of Karaca's 54 stories, 24 of Tefal's 41, 23 of Emsan's 42. Creator spread Karaca worked more with nano and micro accounts; the content share of mega accounts is 16.7% at Emsan, and Tefal has no mega accounts. Account count: Karaca 95, Tefal 57, Emsan 50. Nano and micro account share: Karaca 49.5%, Emsan 38.0%, Tefal 36.8%. Content share of repeat accounts: 47.1%, 42.9%, 30.0%. Deal accounts and BİM announcements A significant part of the volume came from deal accounts; the BİM promo announcements appeared in 4 contents each at Tefal and Emsan and should be read as retail news. Deal account share (content base): Karaca 50/134 (37.3%), Emsan 25/60 (41.7%), Tefal 24/77 (31.2%). Pressure-cooker description In the transcripts of 5 of Karaca's 8 pressure-cooker and Swiss Crystal recipe reels, the locking system, pressure gauge or one-hand closing is described. #reklam [ad] in the caption of 8 of 8 reels; 3,939,071 plays in total, 42.8% of the total plays of the 58 Karaca reels with a play count.

Opportunities for your brand Karaca's pressure-cooker reels showed the safety feature inside the recipe. For your brand, showing product assurance within the recipe flow without a sales call can create a convincing distinction. The Adana store reels gave the date and rate clearly. For your brand, gathering a dated store event into a single reel with local creators can be tried. Tefal's most-played reel opened with doubt and closed by proving the product. For your brand, short test videos that open with a regret claim and prove the product can be tried. At Tefal, pans, knives, vacuum cleaners, washing and irons were described by different creators. For your brand, a separate creator cluster per product group makes the message clearer. Emsan's BİM announcements relied on creator cup videos and a fixed date. For your brand, short reels with price and date before the promo day can be tried. In stories, price and code dominated; in the most-played reels, recipes and usage did. For your brand, splitting price in stories from usage description in reels can be tried.
