"We believe that the opening of "Mixt Chatuchak" will be well received as it will complement and strengthen the position of the Chatuchak weekend market, which is already a globally popular shopping spot. Although consumers are increasingly turning to online shopping, which has seen 8.5 percent growth in 2018 according to ETDA, the information on consumer spending from Statista and PwC indicate that the majority of shoppers still prefer offline stores – 97 percent in Thailand, 91 percent in the United States and 83 percent in China. We also see new opportunities for retail business in the digital era which are Omni-Channel that blends shopping in a physical store with the online world, providing a unique experience, and personalization that meets customers' demands.
