When it comes to per\u00adformance on the road, there can be no room for compromise\u2014safety and efficiency begin at the fundamental level: a ve\u00adhicle\u2019s parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SPK Corporation has been in the business of supplying primary auto\u00admotive parts, accessories, and industrial vehicle parts in the aftermarket for over a century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 1917, the company leverages its years of experience and expertise in the automo\u00adtive aftermarket to provide quality parts and reliable service. SPK was listed on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange in 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To date, the company continues to evolve with the changing times and needs of its robust market, starting with the develop\u00adment of its own brands, \u201cGSPEK\u201d and \u201cGSPEK PREMIUM\u201d. Moreover, as a global trading company of the mobility business, SPK is actively challeng\u00ading fields other than parts sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our core business is automotive spare parts sales for Japanese cars, and we provide this world\u00adwide. The Southeast Asian market is one of the stron\u00adgest for Japanese used cars, a trend that will re\u00admain, and is the reason the ASEAN region is very important for us.<\/p>Kyoichiro Oki<\/strong>, President and Chief Information Officer of SPK Corporation<\/mark><\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur core business is automotive spare parts sales for Japanese cars, and we provide this world\u00adwide. The Southeast Asian market is one of the stron\u00adgest for Japanese used cars, a trend that will re\u00admain, and is the reason the ASEAN region is very important for us,\u201d shares Kyoichiro Oki, SPK\u2019s Presi\u00addent and Chief Information Officer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given the strength of the ASEAN market, SPK has chosen Singapore as its regional hub. The company established an office there in 1980, with a handful of employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since then, the branch has grown significantly, in preparation for SPK\u2019s bid to expand even more into other markets in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNow, it has become a huge distribution center of the auto parts in Singapore and all the Southeast Asian countries,\u201d Oki notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

True to the innovative, excellent spirit that has fu\u00adeled SPK\u2019s success, thus far, the company is poised to drive into the future of electric vehicles (EVs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As EVs continue to ex\u00adpand, SPK will play a huge role in parts for these types of cars. \u201cThe automotive industry is transitioning to\u00adwards EVs and other new concepts. Japan is among the technological centers for these changes. So, our role and responsibility to support the Asian market in this transition is getting even bigger.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
