Bangkok--Oct 3--Idealist Communication
Sawasdee Duty Free Plaza will open in Phuket on October 15, offering more than 2,000 items free of duties to local and foreign tourists.
Weeravit Lew, managing director of Royal Sawasdee Co., Ltd., said that among the products were cosmetics and perfumes from Europe, audio electronics, sports equipment, liquor, cigarettes and Otop clothing.
“The duty-free shop’s daily revenue should exceed Bt 10 million,” Weeravit said.
More products will be available later, including fashion from Italy and Thailand and supermarket goods.
The shop was constructed as part of the government’s plan to revive tourism in the Andaman Sea region, which collapsed after last December’s tsunami.
Purchases are limited to Bt 20,000 for tourists who stay up to three nights in Phuket, Krabi or Phang Nga. For more than three nights, the purchase limit is Bt 50,000.
