3. Our business strategies
The primary elements for our business strategies are as follows:
OUR POIPET PP SEZ PROJECT
Poipet is located a mere two and a half hours from Bangkok and has seen a flurry of business
activity in the past years
Its strategic location combined with widely available and cost effextive labor, modest energy costs and reliable infrastructure are making the region a hotspot in inter-ASEAN business flows and Poipet a strategic location for industrial developments.
Royal Group Poi Pet SEZ is a subsidiary of Phnom Penh SEZ PLC. and is situated only 8 km east of the Poipet city center with access to one of the key border crossing points with Thailand in the northwest of Cambodia.
Strategically located with direct access to National Road No. 5 (a designated part of the Asian Highway 1), Royal Group Poi Pet SEZ is an important knot along the Hoh Chi Minh – Phnom Penh – Siem Reap – Bangkok route.
Currently, we are in the process of preparing the necessary documentation to obtain approval for the Poipet project as an SEZ designation.
