cigar7 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Any ideas of what will replace replace the TOPS supermarket at the corner of Pattaya Klang and 2nd Road? I see TOPS in the basement of Tukow has been vastly expanded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toenail Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I am sure the owners will rent out space to more shops selling T-shirts, wooden handicrafts, soaps, hand-bags...all that crap that is sold on every street and street corner in Pattaya. The owners will not care if there are five shops of one kind or no customers, or no drawing card to attract tourists. The set-up with these shops (a sucker every day) locals have to put a huge deposit down ( 3 months or more) and if the shop closes up, the owner keeps the deposit so he does not care if the shop goes under because space will be rented to another dreamer who puts down3-4 month deposit.... closes up and loses the deposit. Owners of such make money off shop keepers that run out of business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGImInPattaya Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I'm a little surprised that whole development never really found its footing; being centrally located you would think it would have been quite popular. I guess the nearby Central Mall and its Gourmet Marketplace (also a Tops brand) took its tool. I guess I shouldn't be surprised as I never shopped there much, finding everything I need between Foodland, Best Naklua, and the Gourmet Marketplace.

Well, if you wander beyond the counter area, you will see lots of things, beyond junk food and beer, that you can get at Big C for the same price. And service is very quick at 7-11. Generally, though, I shop at Friendship, with most things cheaper than Foodland. I've converted, even though Foodland is much closer to me.

Brit_Doggie Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Let immo take the building it's time or should I state well behind time that bigger and better premises were provided in a more central location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
