Facilities also include a liaison office of Bloomstar’s electronic division.

“We are proud that construction stayed ahead of schedule and under budget,” noted Soni Quraishi, Managing Director of the Soni Group of Companies. “We now have a world-class, state-of-the-art facility that is better equipped to support the mission of the Soni Group of Companies. Even though we will still retain a few export lots to maintain our overflow and our facility in Pattanakarn, some thirty of our showrooms will now be consolidated in this one showroom…. We are also happy that this move brings us to Prawet. This neighborhood is an exciting place to do business and we are proud to participate in its revitalization. Its vicinity to the new airport away from the congestion of downtown Bangkok allows our foreign customers to get to us quickly.”

Soni new headquarters is designed to accommodate cutting edge technology to allow Soni to serve their customers better. Modern buildings and equipment and employee-friendly services, including multipurpose meeting facility, staff mess and employee recreational center, give Soni the opportunity to attract and retain a highly skilled workforce. A professional cook provides free daily meals to Soni staff and Soni has also provided free accommodation and gym facilities to its employees.

Soni Grand Opening and ribbon cutting Ceremony held today was attended by noted dignitaries and the “who-is-who” of automotive retailing. Local city and county officials praised parent company, the Soni Group of Companies and Mr. Soni and Jim Quraishi for cementing their commitment to the Bangkok community. A respected business leader speaking on behalf of automotive community highlighted Soni Motors’ contributions to Thailand’s economy during the past three decades as Thailand’s oldest and largest auto exporter.

Mrs. Quraishi, mother of Soni Group executives, Soni and Jim Quraishi, officially cut the ribbon to open the new facility. She said, “it is amazing to see the dream M. A. Quraishi saw in 1911 being realized on this scale. It makes me very proud that my sons have turned Asia’s first dealership into world’s largest exporters of 4x4 vehicles by abiding by family values of honesty, professionalism, customer service, top quality and low price. I wish their father Amin were here to see their success.”

Even though Soni has been growing since their founding in 1911 as Quraishi Motors, last three years have been phenomenal and Soni has experienced a whopping 500% growth over the past three years.
