Overall, being an export agent for Thai auto parts has certain potential. From the perspective of market demand, auto parts and electronic parts in Thailand have a certain share in the international market. Especially, the auto industry develops well and the demand for its related auto parts exports keeps growing.
In terms of profit margin, it depends on various factors, such as the types of auto parts being represented, customer resources, cost control, etc. If you can get the agency rights for popular auto parts and expand good sales channels, the profit can be quite.
