Abstract:

The direction of Thailand logistics research is geared toward enhancing the country's competitiveness. To achieve that, logistics research must be conducted from the perspective of the supply chain. In this paper, the supply chain of the Thailand product champion is determined. The passenger car tyre industry is found to be one of the product champions of Thailand. It has one of the highest export values, with high demand in the world market. We then analyse the flow from upstream to downstream. The proportions of rubber product flows in each area, from upstream to midstream and midstream to downstream, are exhibited. Forecasting for future productivity is also taken into account. Capacity balance in the chain is determined to be the major problem. Future locations and capacity needed for passenger car tyre production are proposed. The direction of the industry's competitiveness is also presented in this paper.
