EPG expecting stronger sales as chip shortage eases

Sales of pickup accessories, including canopies, means more revenue for EPG as the chip scarcity has gradually eased.

SET-Listed Eastern Polymer Group Plc (EPG), a Thai plastic moulder, expects to see higher demand for its products as the global semiconductor shortage is believed to have eased.

This will be good for the automotive industry as automakers will launch new models, which will lead to more purchases of certain auto parts made by EPG, said deputy chief executive Chalieo Vitoorapakorn.
