What Products From Back Home Are You Missing Here In Thailand?

Featured Replies

The ecommerce guys at Thaivisa need feedback from you as they are sourcing for new products for our on-line store.

If you have ideas for products you would like to have, please let us know here!

Any chance you might set up a retail outlet in addition to the on-line store?

No, but we aim to be the best Expat shop on-line for foreigners living in Thailand. We can do it if we get your feedback, enough interested customers, and if we can source the right products.

The whole on-line store operation is outsourced to a third party company, expat owned, and they are professional and very efficient!

Your product ideas are welcome here!

I reckon diet or sugar free soft drinks would be a big hit also, and orange squash (or any other squash). I'd love a big bottle of Robinsons apple and blackcurrant.

MOTTS CLAMATTO!!!!

Velveeta Hot Mexican Cheese and Fritos Scoops

What products from back home are you missing here in Thailand?

Food (not fresh food, but canned, processed etc)?

Delicatessen?

Other products?

Our current store, which is very successful with a limited amount of products, is located at http://store.thaivisa.com

If you have ideas for products you would like to have, please let us know here!

Thanks! :o

Just a idea why not look in to getting some software look the upcoming new operating system from Microsoft called the vista I for one does not use pirate software that my choice also why not look in to vitamins might be helpful also I am sure there are much better minds reading your post than mine who can really give you a good boost in setting up your store I do hope you are successful cheers Ronnie

I'm sure George won't mind, but you can already get 90% of the stuff you're asking for here in places like Villa Supermarket. It would be nice to see TV sell things you just can't get anywhere else, or is this gonna be a mail order thing. for people who live in the sticks?

Some up to date, decent shave material ... the common razors (like Mach 4) from europe are impossible to find and also the shavebrush.. .

Chocolat then: lots of Cote d'Or, you can never import nuff that :o

Beers: I can't find Duvel and Stella Artois here, Leffe is hard to find :D

One item of this list would be GREAT already, thanks mwuhaha

Robinsons Barley Water.

Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got 'til its gone. :o

you CAN get a lot of stuff in villa, but much of it is out of date. many of us dont live in bkk, so its perfect.

i agree with the person who requested vitamins too. hard to get here.

Ginsters Pies (Cornish Pasties),

Add to that Ginster slices. :o

Heinz soups.

jacobs cream crackers

walkers crisps.... esp. Prawn Cocktail

Weetabix

and freezebags for icecubes

OXO cubes.

I am surprised none of you kiwis mentioned "Lamb". baaaaaahhhhhhh :o

I go Sydney in a few weeks, Lamb with mint sauce sounds good :D And a few Rump Steaks also. :D:D:D

Jaffa Cakes :o

The obvious which is not available here in Isaan:-

Vegemite, Bonox, Gravox, etc.

If your in Bkk - try Villa supermarkets -- they have all of this ---- and licorice ----- :o))))

Another plea for licorice.

Good & Plenty candy.

Barqs diet root beer.

Softener sheets for dryer.

Dishwasher detergent/salt/rinse for those upcountry.

Export/expat size clothing? Should be available here.

Letter size paper (available here but hard to find outside city).

BBQ grill accessories.

cottage cheese, liverwurst, twinkies, hostess cup cakes, durable, strong garden tools, decent pizza, hardware stores with knowledgable sales people, that know what they are talking about. boardwalks at the seashore.

The obvious which is not available here in Isaan:-

Vegemite, Bonox, Gravox, etc.

Just might be worth a trip to Krung Thep and stock up --- set up a small market stall up there and take some lamb with you --- just about anything Aussi --- Heinz and SPC spaghetti - bake beans - you name it they seem to have it -- except good sardines --- there is a shop in Sukhamvit 71 - Food Glorious Food -- all imports from the land down under -- and great pies and pasties sausage rolls --- wines and fresh veg and fruit - their sausages are the best in bkk -----well thailand --- not the cheapest but really good produce

Tetley tea bags

Unlike that yelloow label crap this is real english tea and my day doesn't start properly without it.

btw does anyone know where i can get it in Patters (tetleys' that is)

A good, soft 2 foot wide push broom.

And Bounty Bars.

RED Bounty please :o:D

If I had one in front of me it wouldn't have a long plate life as well. :D

If you wanna make it the best expat line on store, I suggest getting some facilities for fresh foods at a later date George.

Until then, Ye Olde Oak Hot Dogs.

Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew, Rocky Road Chocolates, Jelly Belly's, and Guacamole.

prosciutto, cheese, grappa
