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. 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 recession severely cut Thailand's exports, with most sectors experiencing double-digit drops. In late 2011 Thailand's recovery was interrupted by historic flooding in the industrial areas in Bangkok and its five surrounding provinces, crippling the manufacturing sector. The government 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 following seven years.

COMMENT

 

The subject is acting as the exporter therefore its major customers are wide spread around the world more than 70 countries mostly are wholesalers while the others are trading companies and retailers.  Most of its major customers are located in the United States  of  America, European Communities and the others are  Taiwan,  Japan,  Australia,  Canada  and etc.

 

The major targeted customer group is the foreign market with highly purchasing power countries which consist of the USA, EU and Japan.  The company still maintains the existing strong market base for more strength together with expansion of the market base toward the markets  where the company’s  brands  have  not  been  satisfied  for  its  total  sales. 

 

Improvement  in  export  markets  especially  U.S.A.  and  some  European  countries  in  2013  has  contributed  a  good  business.
