A new shopping centre in the heart of Chatuchak Market called “Mixt Chatuchak” is all set to open on August 30, and is expected to attract more than 1.2 million Thai and foreign shoppers per month.

 

Siam Piriya Development rolled out its “Tenant Kick-off Meeting 2019” with 13 partners from both the public and private sectors, along with more than 400 SMEs/retail operators, all of whom announced they were ready to open Mixt Chatuchak, the company said on Tuesday.

 

Rental rates at the shopping centre start at an “attractive Bt1,000 per square metre per month”, the firm said.

 

“The company’s vision is to make Mixt Chatuchak a new shopping destination for both Thai and foreign tourists in the heart of Chatuchak – the largest market in Thailand,” said Siam Piriya Development executive director Miporn Chaiyupatumpa. “We are ready to serve the needs of shoppers and tourists while building trust and confidence with our tenants and partners. Mixt Chatuchak will complement the world-famous Chatuchak Weekend Market while also helping to boost economic growth for SMEs in the third quarter of 2019,” Miporn added. 

 

“To hit the ground running, the company organised the ‘Mixt Chatuchak Tenant Kick-off Meeting 2019’ in collaboration with thirteen leading partners from the public and private sectors, including the Department of Industrial Promotion, the Office of Small and Medium Enterprises Promotion, the Professional Tourist Guides Association of Thailand, Siam Commercial Bank, Bangkok Smartcard System, Haupcar, CCT Group, Maenam Siam Angkor Tour, Central Restaurant Group, Fast Ship, Suntory Pepsico Beverage (Thailand), and more than 400 SMEs and retail operators to announce the opening of Mixt Chatuchak – a new dimension of Chatuchak Market,” Miporn said.

 

Built on 10 rai of land and featuring more than 700 retail shops occupying a space of 60,000 square metres, the new centre is designed to offer a “complete shopping experience” seven days a week under the theme Mixt Chatuchak Selected, which encourages visitors to shop for a wide variety of unrivalled and exclusive goods from the huge range of shops, the company said.

 

“Mixt Chatuchak is a prime location for SMEs and retail operators to invest in,” said Mixt Chatuchak executive adviser Sirichai Praphanturaki. “It is also a venue that unlocks the limitations of shopping as we will be open seven days a week from 10am to 10pm. Rental rates start at an incredibly attractive price for SMEs and retailers – at only Bt1,000 per square metre each month. 

 

“This new shopping centre will take things to another level with eight different categories of products and services offered by more than 700 stores – fashion, accessories, food & beverage, food courts, home and decor, spa & beauty, souvenirs and service businesses. Our comprehensive set of unrivalled facilities includes a prayer room, first-aid room, drivers’ waiting room, a parking area for 20 buses and parking capacity for more than 700 vehicles. Fun and interesting ‘shopping spree’ events will be held twice a month in a designated space covering over 800 square metres. Customers can rest assured that they will be pampered with a complete set of comforts that meet the needs of both Thai and foreign shoppers,” Sirichai promised.

What language does the word 'Mixt' come from I wonder?

Hopefully this will be sufficient for the amount of customers. At the nearby JJ Mall, the parking is overfull on the weekends and it is nearly impossible to find parking in the afternoon.

 

Traffic is also terrible in that area and will most likely be worse once this place opens. I wonder where the entrance and exit will be.

There it  comes again : Like Kao Son Road, nobody (as a tourist) would be interested in a cream o the crop new Chaktuchak Market. But they are insisting ... I wonder until when ???
