Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. may supply mobile phones to Vodafone KK, the Japanese unit of Vodafone Group Plc, an executive at the South Korean firm said on Wednesday. "Vodafone is one of our major buyers and it has an affiliated company in Japan...so we may have business opportunities with Vodafone (in Japan)," Daniel Chung, vice president at Samsung’s telecommunication division, told reporters on the sidelines of a conference. If a deal is ceiled, Samsung would be the final mobile manufacturer among the world’s top four cell phone makers to enter the Japanese market, where foreign players have struggled to make ground. Samsung is the world’s third-largest mobile phone maker. Japan’s top mobile carrier NTT DoCoMo Inc. plans to offer next-generation phones made by the world’s top manufacturer Nokia, second-ranked Motorola Inc. and the fourth-ranked LG Electronics Inc. later this year and early next year.
