Medium and large Thai manufacturers enjoy advantages over smaller players due to their strong financial base, better management of production processes, and favorable bargaining position. En contraste, smaller operators tend to be in a weaker financial position, which forces them to produce only products within limits or to focus on producing single categories.
In Thailand, current foreign companies in ceramic sanitary ware include Lixil, TOTO, Villeroy & Boch, Kohler, Roca (trading company), China Runner, Panasia and others. Thailand’s largest cement producer and industrial group SCG Group’s tile section Siam Ceramics (previously set up a joint venture with TOTO COTTO brand), etc. The largest number of foreign companies are Japanese-funded. Most Chinese companies are concentrated in the Rayong Province Industrial Park, jointly developed by China’s Huali Group and Thailand’s Amata Group. According to DBD data, a number of foreign companies with factories in the area showed losses last year.
According to the data of OIE, Thailand’s Ministry of Industry and Economy, there are currently 321 companies in the whole ceramic industry, employing about 39,618 persoas. The annual production of ceramic tiles is 12.72 millóns de metros cadrados, and there are 6.93 million pieces of sanitary ware.
En 2020, Thailand’s tile and ceramic sanitary ware revenues contracted by 6.6%, but the net profit margin stabilized at 7.4% due to a significant decrease in energy costs. En 2022, although exports grow, production and domestic sales show contraction due to inflation, pandemic and other factors.
In the first six months of 2022, production of sanitary ceramics in Thailand was 3,504,400 units, abaixo 6.8% year-on-year. Sales in the domestic market were 1,618,800 units, abaixo 0.8% year-on-year. During the period, exports of sanitary ceramics were 3,804.72 million baht (approximately RMB 730 million), an increase of 1.54% year-on-year. The export of ceramic tiles was 2,384.37 million baht (sobre 460 millóns de yuans), an increase of 52.46% year-on-year.
The important factors currently affecting business include, in addition to energy prices, the prices of various raw materials that have risen. According to the Thai Ministry of Industry and Economy data show that the price of sanitary ware in the second quarter compared with the first quarter of this year increased by 12.9%. In July, prices in the tile category increased by 4.6 por cento, wood and wood products by 4.4 por cento, pipes by 3.3 por cento, and sanitary ware by 0.4 por cento.
The Rising Digital Economy in Southeast Asia
Thai building materials distribution giants expand stores, flock to online
(Due to space constraints, a channel feature will be published later, so stay tuned)
While new housing starts in Thai real estate are down, four major regions – Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chonburi, Khon Kaen and Phuket – which together account for 78% of all new housing starts in Thailand, saw a 5.0% decline in the number of new housing starts completed in 2021. Weakness in private construction also contributed to a 9.3% decline in imports.
But since late last year, Thai building materials distribution giants have been scrambling to expand their stores and have flooded the online market.
Thailand has about 8,200 building material distributors, spread among 163 large companies, 723 medium-sized operators and 7,332 small companies. Six large companies dominate the market with a combined share of 24%: Home Product Centre Public Company Limited (whose brand HomePro itself is more retail-oriented, while MegaHome focuses on wholesale and trading), Central Retail Corporation (whose Hardline business group is primarily focused on the retail sector), and the Thai Construction Materials Association. (the main brand of its Hardline business group, Thai Watsadu), Siam Global House Public Company Limited (hereinafter referred to as “Siam Global House”), Dohome and Boonthavorn.
According to Prachachat Business’ survey of the four leading Thai distribution home furnishing stores in 2020, the overall revenue of the four companies in 2021 was 187.544 billion baht, an increase of 17.02% year-on-year. The overall net profit increased to 10,878 million baht, a growth rate of 33%.
As the industry leader, HomePro’s revenue in 2021 was 63.926 billion baht, up 3.53% year-on-year, and net profit was 5.44 billion baht, up 5.54% year-on-year. By the end of 2021, HomePro had 87 HomePro stores and added 28 new stores.
The second largest is Hardline. The business is located in Thailand and Vietnam. En 2021, it generated revenue of Bt63.565 billion and EBITDA increased by 82.06% year-on-year. By the end of 2021, Thai Watsadu branches reached 59.
The third is Siam Global House. Its brands include Global House with revenue of Baht 34,116 million, up 24.72% year-on-year. Net profit was Baht 3,344 million, an increase of 70.03% year-on-year. By the end of 2021, Global House had 75 branches and added 4 new branches.
The fourth oldest is the rising star Do Home, which had revenue of 25.937 billion baht, up 37.5% year-on-year. By the end of 2021, there were 13 stores in operation, including 6 new branches.
In addition to the frenzy to open stores, several giants have rushed into e-commerce.
According to the report “Southeast Asia Digital Economy 2021” jointly published by Google, Temasek and Bain, cashless payments such as e-commerce, taxi and takeaway are increasingly becoming the preferred choice for a seamless experience as Thailand’s digital economy grows rapidly.
Supported by national payment systems such as PayNow in Singapore and PromptPay in Thailand, the Account-to-Account (A2A) real-time payment system has enabled a large number of unbanked people to take a direct step-change in payment forms, from having 0 bank cards to having a digital wallet. As the second largest online user after Singapore, PromptPay Thailand has recorded a year-on-year growth of approximately 80% in transaction volume for the single month of April 2021 alone.
The overall size of e-commerce in Thailand is now over 4 trillion baht. The wholesale and retail segments alone generate 1.3 trillion baht in revenue.
Thailand’s current e-commerce channels include large e-commerce platforms Shopee, Lazada, JD Central, individual independent sites in addition to Tiktok, Facebook and other social e-commerce in Thailand’s online market is also gradually occupying an important position. COTTO has a strong position in the local market, and STARS is the next local brand.
The development of Thailand’s digital economy will also drive diversified forms of consumption and consumer demand. Thanks to the Thai government’s increased investment in infrastructure, the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC) and the China-Laos Railway, the country’s large-scale transportation links, OIE’s expectations for the pottery industry in Thailand are above 3%.
