MFG.com creates global portal for Thai and ASEAN manufacturers to connect with customers in the west

"Thailand is known around the world for its high quality suppliers of automotive components.  Those companies are very good at exporting," said Mitch Free, CEO and Founder of MFG.com. "But there are a lot of world class manufacturers outside the auto parts industry in Thailand that have not previously had access to exporting opportunities.  As buyers in the west look to find great quality at a good price they keep telling us that they want greater access to suppliers in Thailand. MFG.com is excited to be building a bridge between the suppliers in Thailand and the buyers in the west.  We think this is a "win" for everyone."

 

Free also noted, because of Thailand’s strong manufacturing base, the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), which comes into fruition in 2015 will benefit as MFG.com will open global sourcing and selling opportunities to all nations of the 10 member ASEAN community which consists of half a billion people, GDP in excess of US$1.5 trillion and a total trading base of more than US$1 trillion per year.

 

MFG.com's on-demand service is consolidating the once- fragmented world of manufacturing into an efficient marketplace, enabling products to be sourced and built more easily, quickly, inexpensively, and at higher quality levels. For more information, please visit www.MFG.com. 

 

Thailand is very important player within the global manufacturing industry and is famous for making automobiles and machine parts. MFG.com is a good platform showcasing Thailand manufacturers to the world.  

 

MFG.com, the largest global sourcing marketplace for the manufacturing industry, launched Asia Supplier Discovery Tour recently with a plan to locate ASEAN suppliers from Thailand, Vietnam, India, Malaysia, Taiwan and Hongkong.
