Over 600 million baht was spent on the 44th branch of Makro in Pattaya’s first outlet. There are over 10,000 items selling in big packs with the target being hotel and restaurant owners.
Ms. Suchada Attijarakhun, Managing Director of Makro Company said, “Makro in Pattaya focuses on hotel and restaurant owners. The Pattaya branch consists of over 44,000 square meters in which 7,000 square meters is used for the shopping area. We sell everything from fresh food, dry food, herbs, and drinks. Anything you can think of can be found here.”
“Makro in Pattaya is decorated in an ‘Eco Plus’ style to suit the hotel and restaurant owners. This branch is considered very small compared to our other stores. When you walk in the door you will see our bakery and coffee area. Fresh food is located right at the front as well so that restaurant owners can buy the products they need quickly,” added Ms. Suchada.
Choburi Govenor Sanee Jittakasaen said, “Makro is a great place for people who like to buy goods in big packs. Small shop owners can also buy the products to sell at their store and make more money than buying it at other places. Makro also created employment opportunities for many people in Pattaya and the surrounding area.”
