Can I get my car serviced in Bangkok? - a
question I am sometimes asked. Of course you can as long as you have a
mainstream automobile like a Honda or Toyota or even an expensive car like a
Benz or BMW. If you have an expensive ride like a Ferrari or Jaguar then
you are going to have problems. Up country the picture should be pretty
much the same. There is a network of automotive dealerships all over
Thailand that cater for all the main marks.
There is however a serious lack of what we
know as 'back street garages' Yes there are some fine auto repair set
ups. They are needed to patch up and repair the accident damage that is
inevitable on Thai roads. Skilled mechanics though are few and far
between. The only option sometimes is to use a motorcycle shop or maybe
a truck service centre.
As more and more 'middle class Thais are
able to afford and run a car there is a greater need for good quality
automobile service centers to fix, repair and maintain these vehicles.
There are now many of these auto shops springing up in Bangkok and other
major conurbations around Thailand.
These auto service shops are often
franchised operations. "Join Midas, and you will be part of a
global brand with 2,500-plus shops delivering a range of car care
services, including brakes, exhaust, tires, batteries, maintenance,
along with strong product guarantees. You’ll also be joining a
forward-thinking organization geared to growth, innovation and
achievement"
So here are new business opportunities not
only for Thai business people but also for foreign franchisors or people
looking to take up an automotive franchise in a growing market.
