Inside thegentlemen
Thegentlemen is a ransomware group known for encrypting victim systems and listing selected targets on its leak site.

Who is Kınık Gross?
Kınık Gross Toptan Market operates as the first and only local wholesale market in Turkey’s Thrace region, located in Çorlu. It supplies fresh produce, meat, deli items, legumes, cleaning supplies and personal-care products to retailers at wholesale prices. Organisations of this type routinely maintain supplier records, customer accounts, inventory systems and financial documentation.
What was likely exposed
The only data category named in connection with the incident is internal files exfiltrated during the ransomware attack. The exact nature of those files has not been disclosed. Organisations in the wholesale sector commonly hold business correspondence, transaction records and operational data, yet the specific contents in this case remain unconfirmed.
What's at stake
Exposure of internal files can reveal commercial relationships, pricing structures and operational details that may be of interest to competitors or other parties. For individuals whose information appears in those files, the primary concern is the potential for targeted follow-on activity such as phishing or account misuse, though the presence of personal data has not been established.

Breach listings — particularly those originating from ransomware or leak sites — are third-party claims that may be unverified, incomplete, or inaccurate. A listing does not by itself confirm that a breach occurred or that any specific data was exposed. Severity is an automated assessment, not a definitive rating. Verification status is shown where available.
Attributions to threat groups and methods reflect public reporting and, in some cases, unverified claims made by the groups themselves; they may be incomplete or later revised.
