At that time, the company’s core business was primarily related to golf course maintenance. Over the years, additional services such as feasibility studies, course design, course construction, construction management and tournament preparation were added.
In yearly 2006 a Golf & Resort Management division was created by securing the operation and marketing contract for the largest golf resort in Thailand.
Today, QGI is a multi-service golf enterprise serving the Asia-wide golf industry offering a wide range of innovative products and services. Our most recent successes include the upgrading of the maintenance programme at Rajpruek Golf Club and turn-key construction of Santiburi Samui Country Club which was completed on October 15, 2003.
Management statement
QGI has remained at the forefront of the industry by consistently maintaining the highest international standards of service. Consequently, we have been able to forge strong partnerships with some of the most prestigious golf courses in the Asian Region, delivering them tangible results based upon sound, workable and proven principles.
Our achievements are the direct result of the outstanding loyalty and commitment shown by our employees, most of whom have been with the company since the outset. By providing them with on-going training, our goal has always been to ensure their own career development.
Looking to the future, as Owners and Investors increasingly realize the potential of professionally maintained and managed golf courses to generate considerable revenues and profits, I am confident that our company is well positioned to prosper.
During the economic crises of 1997, the company concentrated its efforts on 5-star facilities for tournament preparation, namely of Thai Country Club for the Asian Honda Classic, 1997; Blue Canyon for the Johnnie Walker Classic, 1998; and the renovation and tournament preparation of Alpine Golf & Sports Club for the Johnnie Walker Classic, 2000.
The past experiences included:
- Bangsai Country Club, Ayudhaya
- Barrington Golf Course, Kanchanaburi
- Soi Dao Highlands, Chantaburi
- Thai Country Club, Chachaengsao
- and the West Course of Burapha Golf Club, Chonburi
Additional services were added to better service the golf industry, for example feasibility studies; course design; turn-key maintenance management programmes; and the supply of related products.
The mission of QGI International Products is to provide top-quality products and services. The company will seek to provide these products and services in the timeliest manner and with an ongoing comprehensive quality control program to provide 100% customer satisfaction.
The company’s principal officers see each contract as an agreement not between a business and its customers, but between partners that wish to create a close and mutually beneficial long-term relationship. This will help to provide greater long-term profits through referrals and repeat business.
Our key success factors will include the following:
- Excellence in fulfilling the promise: completely confidential, reliable, trustworthy expertise and information. This dictates that we have the latest technology and management (software).
- Uncompromising commitment to the quality of the work: that is, quality products, information and solutions.
- Developing visibility to generate new business leads.
- Successful niche marketing: we intend to find and target the quality-conscious customer in the right channels, making sure that the customer will find us through aggressive marketing.
- Timely response to clients’ orders: we cannot afford to delay the client's order for whatever reason as this will have a negative bearing on our image and reputation, including future business. We need to be continually communicating with the client.
- Marketing know-how: in an increasingly competitive market there is need to aggressively market our business and the services we provide so as to be continuously at the top of our prospective and current clients minds.
- Entrepreneurial Flair: market volatility and increasing duplication of business ideas advocates that we continuously keep abreast of new trends and our competitors.
