Ks45672 Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Didn't they buy carrefour about 3-4 years ago? I am not sure who they could sell it to, lotus or tops may not be wealthy enough and I would prefer less monopolies anyway.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supaluke Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Sort of confused by the News Article. 'BigC' is a publicly listed company on the SET. The largest shareholder is บริษัท เสาวนีย์โฮลดิ้งส์ จำกัด with 26.46% of the shares.

TheCruncher Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I agree, they shouldn't sell it, better would be to close it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time when Carre Foure was being sold, oil and petroleum conglomerate PTT was also a bidder but lost out to Big C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCruncher Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 When I look at the amount of empty shelves, and products that are replaced by a low cost noodle soup or whatever at Big C extra in Pattaya, I get the impression that they are selling out for quite some time already.

Maybe Big C could be like 7 and just sell takeaway noodles to Chinese tour groups.Plenty of room to park,just keep em away from the shopping trolleys,must have license.You know it makes sense.

For those who are not Brits, it is normal practice for a football manager to get a vote of confidence on a Saturday evening from his board, only to be sacked on the following Monday morning. We will not sell, Fridays statement, Monday morning, we shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCruncher Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Government should shut them down instead for all the scams they run, at least that is what should happen if they did the same in their origin country. Yesterday at Big C extra in Pattaya they were selling KU ( Khaset University) beef burgers that were light beige color instead of red. I asked the butcher why they were that color, and was answered that they added breadcrumbs and onion and eggs etc to the mix, though I would have assumed that you still would have seen some red meat if it actually was beef. The price however was still the same as for pure KU beef burgers, and so was the label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
