BMW is spending THB220m (US$6.3m) on a new national parts distribution centre in Bang-Na, on the outskirts of the Thai capital Bangkok.
The new centre covers an area of 5,000sq m and will serve as the main spare parts distribution centre for the group's BMW, Mini and Motorrad brands. It will replace the existing facility in Phra Pradaeng, which is much smaller.

BMW said the new facility would allow it to better respond to customer demands as the number of its vehicles in use in the country continues to increase rapidly.
BMW-Mini sales rose by close to 5% to 8,768 units last year, in a depressed market environment, while motorcycle sales jumped by over 80% to 1,280 units.
