Andre Roy, CEO of Wearnes Automotive Pte, Singapore, said, “We are honored to have the opportunity to work together with Wearnes Automotive Thailand to promote the Lotus brand. We are excited and looking forward to growing the brand’s presence in Thailand as the third market for Lotus in Asia Pacific region under Wearnes Automotive Group, after Hong Kong and Singapore.”
