Canon sales up
Canon Marketing (Thailand) recorded first-half sales growth of 20 per cent in its Office Equipment Division.
Division director and general manager Soontorn Pantaramongkon said the growth raised the company's market share to 18 per cent.
"As we have achieved an 18 per-cent market share earlier than expected, this is a major success for 2007," he said.
Yesterday, the company launched five new multifunctional copiers for small-office and home use. Canon trains distributors to provide after-sales service. It said the company's Chiang Mai distributor had expanded into a full-service centre for Canon products.
