SCinc
They are an Agent that have been operating in Thailand for around 30 years. Their main products are from Taiwan, but this year they are also showcasing the Apollo injection molding machine from China as their main product. They have their own engineering department, so if any of their customer’s products get into difficulties, they will be able to repair them without going to the original manufactures. This year they are at the fair show to find new customers and to put their new products on display. The best thing about their displays is that potential buyers are able to see the finished products being made and touch them to see the final quality, this is especially useful in the Thai market where lots of potential buyers are looking to produce everyday items.

THMCO
THMCO give us the history of their company and how they have worked hard to establish an ever expanding base of customers over the years. From listening to their customers comments they have developed many different products and a quality that exceeds the expectations of customers all over the world. The motto of THMCO is a happy workforce means happy customers. Throughout their time they can separate the history into three 10 year sections. The first 10 years they had many issues with the language and culture and learning about the market. The second 10 years was spent developing the market and a brand within Thailand. The most recent 10 years were influenced by China opening up their markets giving them more opportunities in the local area. According to Mr Chen the General Manager Thailand acts as a bridge between Europe and China making the Thai market a very important one.
