Launching K Powered
Established in 2013, the company was founded by Mr. Steven Kong with a mission to provide the best in electrical work related to shipbuilding by adopting the latest in technology. The company’s vision is to become a full-scale solution provider for shipbuilding clients. Leveraging on his rich industry experience, deep knowledge and passion to become a successful entrepreneur, Mr. Steven Kong ventured into the shipbuilding industry as a force to reckon with.
From the way the company is growing, it seems like K Powered Pte Ltd is not far from realising its vision. The company has become one of the biggest suppliers in Singapore for Korean marine lighting. Not only that, K Powered Pte Ltd has also received “The Promising SME 500” award by the Small Medium Business Associate. This is a big honour for a newly established company as the award recognizes the exceptional success and achievements of the business, and recognising the contributions of the company in supporting the community and the economy.
After completing his education and earning advanced degree in Electrical & Electronics Engineering, he started his professionally journey by working for another company. He helped that company enter and strengthen their foothold in new markets like Malaysia, Myanmar and Thailand. His secret of success was his ability to speak and learn new languages which helped him bridge the communication gap.
When he turned 31 and got married, Mr. Steven Kong realised that he wanted to spend more time with his family and two children. He thought that working for a local SME would never give him a chance to strike a balance between both family and work life as he was always occupied with work. That is when he decided to launch his own company, K Powered Pte Ltd.
Expanding its Operation and Globalise
The success that the company enjoys at present is truly spectacular and a dream of many entrepreneurs. However, it did not come easy. K Powered Pte Ltd faced its share of obstacles and challenges before coming this far.
Three of the biggest challenges that the company faces were of cash flow, marketing and building long term relationships with clients.
To meet the operational cost, the company needed adequate finances which it didn’t have initially. However, with the support from Spring Singapore, K Powered Pte Ltd was able to obtain capital in the form of Micro loans and trade facilities under the loan insurance scheme. This helped them bid for bigger and more projects and also helped them meet their operational/overhead cost successfully.
On the other hand, with a limited marketing budget, the company faced problems in reaching out to overseas clients, which was much needed to expand its operation and globalise. But with the help of Singapore grants on advertising, the company was able to reach out to overseas clients and increase its sales revenues by 20 to 30 percent.
As to build long term and trust based relationships with clients, the company focused on providing excellence in service. They opened 24 hour support to cater to clients in different time zones.
