Japan Vilene has established a subsidiary in Thailand (VIAM Thailand) for the production and marketing of automotive floor mats. This investment follows increased demand for floor mats in the ASEAN countries, which the company expects will be well served from the Thailand location. Until now, the company has been servicing this market from proudction operations in Japan, the U.S., China and, most recently, Mexico, where a site began operation in March 2013.
