THAILAND - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

With a well-developed infrastructure, a free-enterprise economy, generally pro-investment policies, and strong export industries, Thailand achieved steady growth due largely to industrial and agriculture exports - mostly electronics, agricultural commodities, automobiles and parts, and processed foods. Thailand is trying to maintain growth by encouraging domestic consumption and public investment to offset weak exports in 2012. Unemployment, at less than 1% of the labor force, stands as one of the lowest levels in the world, which puts upward pressure on wages in some industries. Thailand also attracts nearly 2.5 million migrant workers from neighboring countries. The Thai government is implementing a nation-wide 300 baht ($10) per day minimum wage policy and deploying new tax reforms designed to lower rates on middle-income earners. The Thai economy has weathered internal and external economic shocks in recent years. The global economic severely cut Thailand's exports, with most sectors experiencing double-digit drops. In 2009, the economy contracted 2.3%. However, in 2010, Thailand's economy expanded 7.8%, its fastest pace since 1995, as exports rebounded. In late 2011 growth was interrupted by historic flooding in the industrial areas in Bangkok and its five surrounding provinces, crippling the manufacturing sector. Industry recovered from the second quarter of 2012 onward with GDP growth at 5.5% in 2012. The government has approved flood mitigation projects worth $11.7 billion, which were started in 2012, to prevent similar economic damage, and an additional $75 billion for infrastructure over the next seven years with a plan to start in 2013.

HISTORY

 

The subject was  initially established on  April  5,  1951  as  a  private  limited  company  under  the  name  style  F.E.  ZUELLIG  [BANGKOK]  LIMITED.  It  was  set  up  as  a  part  of  the  Zuellig  Group  of  Companies,  a  diversified  services,  trading  and  manufacturing  group  with  a  strong  presence  in  the  Asia-Pacific  region. 

 

The  Zuellig  Group  traces  its  history  back  to  the  early  years  of  the  century,  when  Dr.  Frederick  E.  Zuellig   became  a  partner  in  a  Swiss  trading  house in  Manila.   In  Thailand,  Zuellig  and  its  affiliates  employ  over 1,000  people.  The  subject  is  the  local  operation  of  a  privately-owned  Swiss  company,  which  has  been  in  Thailand  since  1949.   The  subject  is  an  independent  unit  within  the  Zuellig  Group of  Companies,  performing  holding  and  management  functions  for  the  Group  and  has  its  own  operating  units,  Zuellig  Industrial  and  Zuellig  Agro.

 

In  September  2001 the Zuellig  Agro Division  was  separated  its operation  from  the  subject  and  was  setup  to  be  the  new  company  “Fezagro  Co.,  Ltd.”,  therefore  the  subject  became  to  operate  as  the  industrial  products  business.

 

On  March 1, 2005,  the subject’s name  was  changed  to   ZI-TECHASIA  SOLUTIONS  LTD.,  as  well  as  becoming  a  member  of  the  Interpacific  group.  However,  the  subject  is  currently  a  subsidiary  of  Inter  Ocean  Holdings  Group [BVI]  Limited.  It currently employs  approximate  90  staff.

 

The  subject  achieved  the  standard  ISO  9001  certification  by  SGS  [Thailand]  Ltd.,  in  September  1999.

 

The  subject’s  registered  address  is  11th - 12th  Floor,  Ploenchit  Center,  2  Sukhumvit  Rd.,  Klongtoey,  Bangkok  10110, and  this  is  the company’s current operation address.
