This year, we are bringing in more assortments on top of the existing ones to further entice foodies all over the country and at the same time, giving lucky customers a chance to win a trip for two to Thailand.

“We are truly honoured to have been blessed with a strong relationship with Thai manufacturers, farming communities, exporters and Thai Embassy for us to have this wonderful chance to showcase how diverse the Thai products are and are well-received by our local community of all walks of life.”
