reader Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 From Pattaya News Bidding farewell to Thailand, the iconic “Family Mart” convenience stores is being fully rebranded as “Tops Daily” after over three decades of service. Central Retail Corporation PLC (CRC) has made the decision to fully transform and rename its iconic Family Mart convenience stores to Tops Daily by the end of this year. This strategic move comes as CRC’s contract for the Family Mart franchise in Thailand is set to expire in 2023. The rebranding aims to align and streamline CRC’s convenience store business under the Tops Daily banner, CRC’s chief operating officer, Maytinee Phisutsinthop stated. The number of FamilyMart branches in Thailand has declined drastically from 1,135 in 2017 to 409 in 2023. In contrast, its primary business rival, 7-Eleven, has more than 13,000 branches. alvnv 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of times I patronised that place, sometimes with boy de la nuit in tow! But seriously, I wonder why Family Mart outlets have so drastically declined in number when 7-11s have grown. I've never found any real difference between the two chains; I'd go to whichever was nearer. Were other customers choosier, I wonder? Causing Family Mart to do worse per store than 7-11?
