Hitachi Expands Elevator & Escalator Business in Myanmar
OREANDA-NEWS. Hitachi, Ltd. together with Siam-Hitachi Elevator Co., Ltd. and Prime Deco Engineering Co., Ltd., has established Hitachi Elevator (Myanmar) Co., Ltd., a joint venture for sales and services of elevators & escalators in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar ("Myanmar").
Siam-Hitachi is a manufacturing & service company of Hitachi's elevators & escalators. The new joint venture will start its full scale sales activities in November to expand sales orders in the market.
The demands in the construction market in Myanmar have been rapidly increasing because of upgrading of urban infrastructures and factory constructions by foreign manufacturers. As a result, the demand of hotels, office buildings, and residential buildings developed by domestic companies as well as foreign companies from Singapore, Vietnam and so on, has been rising. The demand of new elevators & escalators in the country is expected to grow from 1,300 units in fiscal 2015 to 2,000 units in fiscal 2020 with over 7% of annual growth rate.
Hitachi has a long history of its elevator & escalator business in Myanmar. The company supplied 4 sets of elevators for "Sakura Tower" in Yangon, the biggest city of the country in 1997. Hitachi has also secured elevator orders for several major developments in the city such as a construction project of "Shangri-La Residences" and an extension project of "Sedona Hotel". The company has been expanding its sales activities since it entered a distributorship agreement with Prime Deco in November, 2013. Most recently, Hitachi grabbed the whole package with 70 sets of elevators & escalators for "HAGL Myanmar Center", one of the major developments in Yangon. The installation work of the project is going on towards its completion scheduled at the end of 2015.
Hitachi is the elevator manufacturer that has developed the world fastest, 1,200 m/min, elevator. Through Hitachi Elevator Myanmar, Hitachi will enhance its sales activities of elevators & escalators to expand sales orders in Myanmar and contribute to the economic growth of the country.
