Mazda has designated Thailand as its spare-parts distribution hub for Asean and global exports, and has officially opened a new parts distribution centre in Samut Prakan in order to improve the quality of its after-sales service.

Set up by Mazda Logistics & Yusen (Asia) - a joint venture between Mazda Sales Thailand and Yusen Logistics (Thailand) with registered capital of Bt40 million - the new facility stocks up to 53,000 Mazda parts worth more than Bt360 million. Yusen is the largest logistics company in Japan. Last year, Mazda's Thai operations sold Bt1.7 billion-worth of spare parts for the domestic market and Bt800 million for export to more than 100 countries.
