MR. D.I.Y. Marks 10 Years Alongside Thai Communities, Extending its BMA Partnership for a Third Year to Support Green Spaces at Benchakitti Forest Park, with More Than 900 Trees Planted to Date
MR. D.I.Y. Holding (Thailand) Public Company Limited, a leading home improvement and lifestyle retailer, is celebrating its 10th anniversary of operations in Thailand while continuing its partnership with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) for the third consecutive year under the MR. D.I.Y. Cares project. The collaboration aims to support the expansion and maintenance of green spaces at Benchakitti Forest Park. Over the past three years, MR. D.I.Y. has contributed to the planting of a total of 940 trees, while continuing to provide equipment to support the ongoing care and maintenance of the park.
This year, MR. D.I.Y. donated an additional 100 tree saplings, together with gardening, cleaning and safety equipment to support the work of park staff. The Company also organised a "Walk-Run, Litter Collection and Tree Planting" activity, bringing together its management team, employees and business partners. The activity was led by Mr. Andy Chin, Chief Executive Officer of MR. D.I.Y. Holding (Thailand) Public Company Limited.
Mr. Andy Chin, Chief Executive Officer of MR. D.I.Y. Holding (Thailand) Public Company Limited, said: "This year marks MR. D.I.Y.'s 10th anniversary in Thailand. From our first day in the country to where we are today, we have expanded our presence to more than 1,300 stores across all 77 provinces, making it more convenient for customers nationwide to access a wide range of quality, value-for-money products under our 'Always Low Prices' philosophy. For us, growth is about more than increasing the number of stores. We also want to contribute positively to the communities and society in the areas where we grow. Our partnership with the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration, now in its third consecutive year, is one example of our commitment to combining resources, people and collaboration with our partners to support the ongoing care and development of green spaces. This commitment extends beyond the day of the tree-planting activity itself, through our continued provision of equipment that park staff can use for the long-term maintenance and care of the area."
Over the three-year period from 2024 to 2026, MR. D.I.Y. and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration have together planted a total of 940 trees at Benchakitti Forest Park. MR. D.I.Y. has also provided essential equipment for the maintenance and upkeep of the park, including rubbish bags, gloves, pruning shears, shovels, litter pickers and first-aid kits, helping to keep the green space clean, safe and well maintained for continued public use.
MR. D.I.Y. remains committed to advancing the MR. D.I.Y. Cares project through social, community, youth and environmental initiatives across Thailand, with the aim of creating shared value and delivering lasting benefits to Thai society.
