S.E.I. Thai Holding Co., Ltd. (STHC) was established in 1997 as the Sumitomo Electric Group’s financial center in Thailand. Subsequently, the center expanded its business scope to provide support regarding HR and labor affairs and information systems. As of 2012, the center is even providing support to Sumitomo Electric Group’s companies in Cambodia and Vietnam. Having been restored from the damage inflicted by last year’s flooding, the Thai economy is now gaining further momentum toward growth. Since 2010, the Sumitomo Electric Group has been establishing one manufacturing company per year, all the while broadening its businesses every year. This year marks STHC’s 15th anniversary. All the staff members at the company are making concerted efforts to provide even better support.
