煙草在線據《國際煙草雜志》報道編譯　　這個工廠最初是由馬來西亞國際貿易工業部副部長Dato Mukriz Matathir在2010年3月的時候剪彩開業的。這是Parkside的第一個海外生產工廠。這家工廠擁有先進的層壓與涂層設備，其發展愈加強大，成為了Parkside業務的一個關鍵組成部分，使得它與客戶具有更好的戰略一致性。

　　這家工廠從戰略方面考慮而位于吉隆坡，它使Parkside能夠服務于亞太地區的客戶，提供當地的供應鏈，從而大大縮短訂貨至交貨的時間，改善這個地區的客戶服務水平。Parkside引以自豪的是自己保持的服務與質量記錄，2012年，其服務與質量優質記錄超過了99%，大大高于產業標準。

　　在亞洲的投資可能只是即將進行的眾多投資的第一批投資，因為Parkside打算將這種模式復制到世界上別的地方。公司負責開發的董事克里斯·科茲里克說：“我們在馬來西亞取得的成功給我們提供了一個在全球范圍內的開辦新工廠的完美藍圖，我們繼續在全球范圍內尋找新的發展機遇。”

　　在今年晚些時候進一步對吉隆坡工廠進行投資的事宜目前在考慮之中，這顯示出Parkside公司致力于這個地區的業務發展的決心，也確保未來繼續保持高水平的質量與服務。

Malaysia: Parkside Flexibles celebrates 3rd year anniversary in Kuala Lumpur

　　The site was originally opened in March 2010 by the Malaysian Deputy Minister of International Trade and Industry, Dato Mukriz Matathir. This was Parkside's first overseas production facility. With state of the art laminating and coating equipment, the site has moved from strength to strength, becoming a pivotal part of the Parkside business, allowing greater strategic alignment with our customers.

　　The plant, strategically placed in Kuala Lumpur allows Parkside to service its customers in the Asia Pacific region providing a local supply chain delivering shorter lead times significantly improving service levels to customers in the region. Parkside pride themselves on their service and quality record, which for 2012 was in excess of 99 per cent, well above the industry standard.

　　The investment in Asia is likely to be the first of many as Parkside look to replicate the model elsewhere in the world. "Our success in Malaysia has given us the perfect blue print to open new facilities worldwide", says Development Director Chris Kozlik "and we continually look for new development opportunities across the globe".

　　Further investment is currently being considered for the Kuala Lumpur plant later this year which demonstrates Parkside's commitment to the region and ensures the high standards for quality and service continue to be maintained for the future.
