COMMENT

The  Thai  economy  overall  in  2010  has  some  growth  above  the previous  year.  The  demand  for  domestic  steel  was  about  14  million  metric  tons,  44.33% increased  from  the  year  before.  The  steel  products  with the  increased  use  was  the flat-shaped  steel  due to the demand of  downstream  industries, such as  automobile  and  electrical  appliance industries  expanding  at  a higher  rate  and  the trend  of  the  steel  industry in  2011  expecting  to  expand  continuously.

 

As  a  result,  the  company  had a  turnover  increased  from the  previous  year.   However,  the  company  and the operators of  the  same  business  around  the  world  had  faced  the  severe  economic  crisis  in  2008.  For  the  company, it  had  clear  guidelines  on  solving  the  liquidity  problem,  on  supply  of  working  capital,  and  on  the  adjustment of the operational  structure to get stronger.  Such  measures  included  seeking  new  strategic  partners,  searching  for new sources of  working capital  and  loan  from  both domestic  and international  financial  institutions,  as  well  as  negotiating  with  suppliers  and  accelerating  debt collecting  process, while increasing  cash  transactions.

 

The company satisfactorily maintained  its sales  performance in 2010 due  to careful  operation  driven  by  clear  corporate  vision.  The  company’s  facility  is one  of  a  few  in  Southeast  Asia  that  were  able  to  maintain  their  performance  within  the  same  level  as  the  previous  year.
