SCG eyes expanding markets in Laos

The Saxon Capital Group (SCG) is interested in expanding its markets in Laos after noticing growing trade and investmen t among both domestic and foreign investors as well as Laos' growing integration with the region and the world.

Asia Inter Trade Sole Co., Ltd., in cooperation with SCG, presented a business overview of the companies to the Lao government on Saturday, while also giving business operators a better understanding of the current market expansion opportunities.

It also opened opportunities for Lao investors at every level to join in funding future ventures, highlighting considerable potential benefits.

The presentation was given by SCG's Asia Representative, Mr Somephong Prommarangsy, and SCG Marketing Manager, Mr Pratsin Sapatra.

Asia Inter Trade Sole Co., Ltd. operates a business in the processing industry to produce drinking water for domestic supply and export.

It also imports seafood and various drinking products, as well as importing and selling clothing and other items for daily use, including electrical equipment and appliances.

To link with the business expansion in the Asian region as a whole, the company is planning to venture into more business sectors, especially agriculture and livestock breeding for export.

It also plans to act as a marketing advisor on investment and trading for domestic and foreign entrepreneurs.

Last year, Asia Inter Trade Sole Co., Ltd. engaged SCG as an advisor; SCG is a foreign company operating in financial services and is looking at expanding its role in Laos. This company has branches in Thailand and other countries.

SCG is a global investment and advisory firm. The company is engaged in managing assets for both institutional and retail clients from offices around the world.

The company was approved for establishment in the United States of America almost 33 years ago and currently comprises 10 branches in 10 countries including Thailand. It listed on the World Stock Exchange almost 13 years ago.

The company has received permission to operate in financial services by the Australian Securities and Investment Commission.
