Concerns over foreign 'zero-dollar' factories
Bangkok Post
|May 30, 2025
FTI members fear for Thai manufacturers
Foreign “zero-dollar” factories, including those that enter Thailand in the form of foreign direct investment, are causing grave concern among industry leaders who fear they will deal a further blow to Thai manufacturing, according to the latest survey conducted by the Federation of Thai Industries (FTI).
The term “zero-dollar” factories is used to describe foreign factories that are set up in Thailand but contribute little or zero benefit to the economy. Factory owners run their nominee businesses through Thai proxies with the aim of earning money for their parent firms overseas.
