Thailand has a total surface of 514,000 km², and is a veritable crossroads at the heart of South East Asia. The Thai have developed their dynamic commercial agriculture and powerful fishing fleet, and have succeeded in imposing Thailand as a major destination for tourists. Its agricultural economy has become a major exporting factor with a yearly production of nearly 22 million tons of rice, making it the world's leading exporter. With a catch of more than 3.5 tons, Thailand is among the world's ten main suppliers of sea produce. Bangkok Airport makes Thailand Asia's second tourist centre, with more than 5 million visitors every year.

SDV Thailand was created in 1999 to gain presence in the Asian crossroads, then, in such a dynamic economic context, successively opened three offices in 2000, 2001, and 2002, to be able to offer 360° proximity services.
