Siam Kubota

What Siam Kubota does

Siam Kubota Corporation Co., Ltd. (สยามคูโบต้าคอร์ปอเรชั่น จำกัด) is a Thailand-based agricultural and construction machinery company headquartered in Khlong Luang, Pathum Thani, and a consolidated subsidiary of Japan's Kubota Corporation, with Siam Cement Group (SCG) as a major shareholder. The company manufactures, distributes, and services a broad portfolio spanning tractors (B-, L-, and M-series including the M7040), combine harvesters, rice transplanters, power tillers, diesel engines, mini-excavators (where it holds the #1 position in Thailand), wheel loaders, and agricultural drones. Its offering is delivered through what is described as one of Thailand's largest nationwide dealer networks, the Kubota Store e-commerce channel, the Kubota Connect telematics/call-center platform, and a captive financing arm (Siam Kubota Leasing Co., Ltd.).

Revenue is generated across four interlocking streams: (1) outright equipment sales through dealers and direct channels, (2) recurring aftermarket revenue from spare parts and maintenance services, (3) financing income from Siam Kubota Leasing's loan and lease book, and (4) increasingly, digital and agronomic services such as the KAS (Kubota Agri Solutions) platform, Kubota Farm demonstration center, and Kubota Family loyalty program. The customer base is highly distributed across Thai smallholder and commercial farmers, agricultural contractors, and construction-equipment operators, with regional expansion into Cambodia and Laos via dedicated subsidiaries (Kubota Cambodia Co., Ltd. and Kubota Lao Sole Co., Ltd.). R&D and agtech innovation are supported by two dedicated vehicles — Kubota R&D Asia and Kaset Inno — and the company has entered co-development partnerships with DJI (drones) and Thai government agencies (Department of Agricultural Extension, Department of Skill Development).
