AP Group Trading Enhances ERP Infrastructure with True IDC Cloud for Superior Performance and Flexibility

12 Dec 2025

In today’s digital-first business landscape, Business Applications play an essential role in enhancing agility, operational efficiency, and business continuity. Yet, these applications can only perform at their best when supported by a secure and reliable IT infrastructure.

AP Group Trading, a fast-growing wholesale and retail business based in Nakhon Pathom—selected True IDC Cloud as the foundation for its ERP system, the core engine that drives the company’s internal operations. This transition enabled the organization to achieve greater system stability, advanced security, and scalable performance to support its ongoing expansion.


A Leading Retail & Wholesale Business in Nakhon Pathom
Founded in 2021, AP Group Trading originated as a plastic manufacturing factory before expanding into retail and wholesale distribution under brands such as Sampheng Express, Mr. Mark, and Mark Mall. The company provides a wide range of household products from plastic containers and kitchenware to general-purpose home goods through a central warehouse and 15 store branches across Nakhon Pathom, Ratchaburi, Samut Sakhon, Suphan Buri, and Nonthaburi, employing over 150 staff.

Driving Growth Across 15 Branches with Digital Innovation
With a forward-looking digital vision, AP Group Trading implemented various Business Applications such as eCommerce, POS systems, and ERP to streamline operations. The company also actively engages with customers through Facebook, LINE, and TikTok, helping accelerate business growth and enabling rapid multi-store expansion in just four years. 
“We are currently working with developers to integrate an AI chatbot into our eCommerce and ERP systems. This will help our staff work faster and improve the customer shopping experience as well,” -- Siwakorn Thachalat, Executive, AP Group Trading


However, as the number of branches increased and product inventory grew, accessing the ERP system through VPN became increasingly slow and unstable. Hardware limitations added further constraints, prompting the company to modernize its IT infrastructure. In early 2025, AP Group Trading made the strategic decision to migrate its ERP system to the cloud to support long-term business expansion.

Transforming ERP Infrastructure with True IDC Cloud, more powerful, stable, and flexible solution
AP Group Trading selected True IDC Cloud, Thailand’s leading provider of Cloud and Data Center services, to host its ERP system. With support from True IDC’s expert engineering team, the company successfully migrated from on-premises to cloud infrastructure in mid-2025. As a result, all 15 branches across multiple provinces can now access the ERP system quickly, securely, and without the need for VPN connections. Staff across sales, purchasing, warehouse management, and accounting can work more efficiently and seamlessly than ever before.

“Our criteria for choosing a cloud provider were performance, flexibility, pricing, and after-sales support. After evaluating several providers in Thailand, we chose True IDC Cloud because of its flexible service packages, strong performance-to-cost ratio, and outstanding technical support.” Siad, Mr. Siwakorn, AP Group Trading


Expert Technical Support Ensuring Smooth Operations
Another key reason AP Group Trading entrusted its ERP system to True IDC Cloud is the reliable support provided by True IDC’s engineering team. The team assisted throughout the entire journey—from consultation and system migration to performance tuning and ongoing technical support, ensuring the cloud environment functions as smoothly as an on-premises setup.

“During the migration, our database system experienced frequent shutdowns due to external attacks that caused server overload. The True IDC team immediately stepped in, coordinated with our ERP vendor, identified the root cause, and resolved the issue. Now, our ERP system runs smoothly and much faster on the cloud.”

After more than four months of using True IDC Cloud, the company reports highly positive feedback from both employees and management. The ERP system now operates faster, with greater stability and significantly fewer issues compared to the previous setup. Response from the True IDC support team has been consistently quick, and the cloud environment offers strong security aligned with international standards, resulting in an excellent return on investment.
