Other Activities & Roadshows
In conjunction with the 33rd Anniversary campaign, Sharp Malaysia will also be organizing a roadshow series to further take the promotion direct to the consumers. The first roadshow will be at Modern Living in Setia City Convention Centre (Shah Alam) from March 30 to April 1.
From April 5 to 8, there will be two roadshows – one in Kuala Lumpur at the Perfect Livin at PWTC and the other one at the Home Décor Fair at the Melaka International Trade Centre. The roadshow series will continue at the Rex Expo in Mid Valley from April 13-15, I Furniture Fair at the Mines 2 from April 20-22 and Homedec at KLCC from April 26-29.
Integration Of Companies
At the same event, Sharp Malaysia also announced the transfer of its business in whole to sister company, Sharp Electronics Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (SEM), effective April 1, 2018 whereby Sharp’s sales and service operations in Malaysia will be solely conducted by SEM.
“The ASEAN market, due to its huge potential, has been identified as a growth driver for Sharp Corporation, and Malaysia, due to its strategic location in Southeast Asia, its growing economy, continuous development, high standard of living and affluent society, is a very important country for Sharp,” explained Mr. Ohyama. “As the country is expected to take a leading role in our business expansion in ASEAN, our domestic business operation in Malaysia has been fine-tuned to be in line with this direction.”
In line with Sharp Corporation’s direction of structuring Sharp’s sales system to one base per country or one country one sales compamy philosopy, this business integration exercise was undertaken to realize a more efficient business structure.
Since its presence in Malaysia for the past 33 years, the Sharp management observed that Malaysians have evolved to be very appreciative of innovation at an affordable price. Yet we are still very much reliant on retailers in making home appliance purchases.
Mr. Ohyama further added that this business integration will enhance Sharp operations in Malaysia with Sharp Electronics Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. becoming a more efficient organization with a faster decision making process in most areas such as in product planning, improved logistics capabilities to reach the market faster and in a timely manner and with the combined capitals, boasts a stronger financial to expand its business in Malaysia.
Besides SMSS’s Managing Director, Mr. Tadashi Ohyama, the event was also attended by Mr. Yoshihiro Hashimoto, Executive Managing Officer, Head of President’s Office, Sharp Corporation, Mr. SM Tok, General Manager, CEP Sales, Sharp Malaysia Sales & Service Company Sdn Bhd and Mr. SG Lau, General Manager, CEP Marketing, Sharp Malaysia Sales & Service Company Sdn Bhd.
