Market selling agricultural products directly from farmers across Thailand.**

## Central Retail Corporation Collaborates with Central Tham for Farmers’ Market

Central Retail Corporation Public Company Limited (CRC) partnered with Central Tham,
the Central Group’s sustainability project, to organize the “Jing Jai Maha….Nakorn”
Farmers’ Market. The market brought together agricultural products directly from
farmers across Thailand’s regions and featured over 1,000 local goods, organic fruits
and vegetables, processed products, and handicrafts. The event, held at Central 
World from June 21-25, 2023, aimed to support grassroots economic development and
provide farmers with a stable income.

## Opening Ceremony with Distinguished Guests

The opening ceremony of the Farmers’ Market was attended by Mr. Keerati Rushchano,
Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Commerce, and executives from Central Group
and Thai Watsadu. The ceremony highlighted the different zones of the market, including
Central Tham’s highlighted projects and the Thai Organic Consumers Association booth.
The event aimed to promote sustainable practices and offset greenhouse gas emissions.

## Central Retail’s Efforts in Empowering Farmers

Central Retail Corporation has been actively working with farmers to expand distribution
channels and increase the value of agricultural products. The success of the Jing
Jai Farmers’ Market project has provided farmers with direct access to consumers
and generated over 1,094 million baht in revenue for the community. The project 
has also become a model for environmentally-friendly and plastic-free markets. Central
Retail plans to further expand the Farmers’ Market to additional provinces in Thailand,
creating inclusive growth and sustainable livelihoods for farmers.
