King Power Group has constantly supported national level campaigns to promote tourism.

King Power Group is to offer incoming tourists benefits and promotions as part of the ‘King Power Phuket Sandbox: Shop Eat Play Stay Safe’ campaign.

The Thai company is already supporting the Tourism Authority of Thailand’s Phuket Sandbox campaign and Apichet Srivaddhanaprabha, Assistant Chief Operating Officer, King Power Group has indicated the company is ready to help boost the country’s economy which has been hit by the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic.

King Power said: “So far, King Power, as a private company has constantly supported several national-level campaigns to promote Thai tourism, such as the “Thailand Smiles With You” project. This emphasises the unique Thai smile as a significant welcoming reference to Thailand in the mind of tourists.

“Our recent contribution is participation in the ‘Phuket is now Open’ tourism campaign under the ‘Amazing Thailand, Now even more Amazing’ initiative.

“The campaign highlights three Leicester City Football Club players and their fond memories of Phuket in different dimensions; food, culture and sightseeing.

ATTRACTING TRAVELELRS TO PHUKET

“The video ‘Amazing Moments in Phuket’ which was broadcasted globally to begin attracting targeted travellers to Phuket, is also part of the Phuket Sandbox project.”

Staff members at all King Power stores are fully vaccinated and trained to follow virus prevention measures.
