Enriching Every Moment Across Four Core Industries
Across its four specialized Business Units, DKSH brings this unseen commercial engine to life to support Thailand’s economic and social fabric: - DKSH Consumer Goods focuses on enriching daily living by powering over 120,000 retail touchpoints through a dedicated field force of over 2,000 specialists. The team ensures reliable product flow from modern hypermarkets to small neighborhood mom-and-pop stores, while expanding advanced B2B and B2C e-commerce fulfillment to give brand partners a seamless omnichannel presence across traditional point of sales and major digital marketplaces.
- DKSH Healthcare advances its commitment to “Healthcare for All” in Thailand, safeguarding public health through an international-standard temperature-controlled cold chain that supplies over 35,000 healthcare products to more than 40,000 hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies across all 77 provinces. As Thailand enters a super-aged society, DKSH Healthcare remains committed to a patient-centric approach, helping improve access to medicines and support better health outcomes. With its nationwide satellite distribution network and automated A-Frame systems, DKSH also enables the rapid delivery of critical surgical tools and essential medicines when hospitals need them most.
- DKSH Performance Materials acts as an innovation engine and a co-creation partner to over 1,500 manufacturers. Across eight local Innovation Centers connected to DKSH’s global network, businesses can co-create tailored solutions for food and beverages, pharmaceuticals, personal care, cosmetics, and industrial applications. This includes reduced-sugar formulations, pharmaceutical ingredients, effective skincare products, and innovative materials for coatings and construction. Through the digital platform “DKSH Discover”, local entrepreneurs and SMEs can access formulation prototypes and regulatory documentation.
- DKSH Technology delivers scientific precision and safety, supporting Thailand’s reputation as the “Kitchen of the World.” Through precision testing and analytical instruments, the Business Unit supports more than 900 food manufacturers nationwide in assessing food quality, nutrition, contaminants, and product shelf life. Beyond food safety, the team helps shape healthier futures through genomic screening that can detect rare genetic conditions. Technology also enables scientific and industrial progress through solutions for vaccine and drug development, while also supporting innovation in Thailand’s electronics and semiconductor industries.
Responsible Growth and a People-First Workplace
From just six employees 120 years ago to approximately 7,000 today, DKSH’s long-standing presence in Thailand is fundamentally anchored in its people, operational excellence, and sustainability. As a people-focused company and the leading Swiss employer in Thailand, the organization champions diversity, equity, and inclusion, with women holding 47% of management positions. This workplace culture earned DKSH the Great Place to Work® certification for the third consecutive year, alongside honors at the HR Asia Awards 2025 as “Most Caring Company” and “Best Companies to Work for in Asia”. DKSH also earned eight awards at the Employee Experience Awards (EXA).
On the environmental front, DKSH continues to drive tangible progress toward Net-Zero operations through adoption of renewable energy and sustainable practices within supply chain. Having achieved almost 3% net reduction in CO2 emissions, a roughly 10% cut in operational energy usage, and nearly a 14% increase in solar power generation, the company is installing another 625 kWp solar rooftop system at its SVDC distribution center, while expanding its electric vehicle (EV) logistics fleet and rolling out 100% recycled-grade packaging in healthcare.
Reinforcing its purpose of “Enriching People’s Lives”, DKSH actively supports local communities through its long-standing partnership with the Baan Dek Foundation, contributing more than THB 16 million in financial support and essential products to provide healthcare and education access for vulnerable children and families living in construction-site communities. The company also hosts its signature annual “Patient Purpose Day” initiative to advance patient-centric care, raise awareness of key health priorities, and improve access to essential healthcare services for underserved communities. These initiatives reflect DKSH’s enduring commitment to the people and communities of Thailand, a commitment that has remained at the heart of its journey for 120 years.
Looking Ahead: Growing Forward with Thailand Since 1906
DKSH aligns its forward-looking operations with Thailand’s sustainable growth. The company is accelerating initiatives to achieve Net-Zero target in its operations by 2050, as validated by the Science Based Target initiative (SBTi), expanding renewable solar energy across its distribution hubs, and further scaling its electric vehicle logistics fleet. DKSH will also continue advancing sustainability through innovations across its value chains, strengthening healthcare access through automated cold chains, and empowering local enterprises to grow through its integrated Market Expansion Services.
“As we look ahead, DKSH continues to uphold its enduring purpose of enriching people’s lives by empowering partners to grow, uplifting communities, and creating sustainable progress that will last for generations,” concluded Poranee D'Alelio. “As we have grown forward with Thailand since 1906, we look forward to building on this 120-year legacy, adapting to evolving needs and continuing to grow together with our partners, our people, and Thai society.” |
