Singapore based Stamford Tyres, who are long term supporters of the Tyr- expo Asia Show, were using their presence at this year’s event to focus almost exclusively on their growing product ranges produced in Thailand and Vietnam. The Tyre- man chatted to Larry Lee – Vice President and Head of International distribution, who explained that Stamford’s manufacturing fa- cility in Thailand mainly covers international sales and distribution, whilst Vietnam con- centrates on more regional business in South East Asia.
Lee stated, “On our booth we are not intro- ducing any new products in tyres and wheels, but our latest improved range of truck pat- terns were on display, which have been de- veloped over the past six months. We also showcased our new extended selection of quality SUV wheel designs from our dedi- cated alloy wheel division – Stamford Sport Wheels (SSW).
“At the moment, with trading proving to be in-
looking at taking a more ‘hands on’ approach to distribution and - ing the market we feel it is the only way to maintain our ambitious sales momentum in the region, and Stamford anticipates opening additional tyre centre branches in strategic locations around Sin-
gapore and possibly in the future elsewhere in the region.”
