CHINESE electric and hybrid commercial vehicle manufacturer Farizon is increasing its presence in South-east Asia beyond Thailand, with the appointment of Singapore-based Hong Seh Motors (HSM) as its distributor for Singapore. HSM also has priority to be appointed distributor in Malaysia and Indonesia.(See *Amendment note)
An official signing ceremony will take place in Singapore on Friday (Oct 6).
A Farizon representative told The Business Times that establishing a presence in Singapore is important as it is a “relatively representative national market in Asia” with close economic and political ties to other Asean countries, which would help establish brand influence in the region.
