Bangchak Empowers SMEs with Sales Channels: Participates in the DBD’s Matching D Business Matching Event

Seri Anupantanan, Senior Executive Vice President of Marketing Business Group at Bangchak Corporation Public Company Limited, participated in the Department of Business Development (DBD)'s Matching D Business Matching event. Napintorn Srisunpang, the Minister of Commerce, chaired the opening ceremony at the Ministry of Commerce.

Bangchak was invited as a service station partner to participate in the SME business matching session. With strategic locations and potential for product and service distribution, Bangchak can provide SMEs with the opportunity to access diverse consumer markets through its service stations. This aligns with the Ministry of Commerce's objectives to collaborate with the private sector and financial institutions to promote the growth of medium, small, and micro enterprises (MSMEs), which are important components of the country’s economy.

During the event, over 100 businesses participated in the business matching. These included SME entrepreneurs, community business owners, franchise business owners, food truck operators, and MOC Biz Club network members. They presented their products for consideration to be sold in convenience stores or coffee shops within the service stations. Moreover, there were negotiations for franchise business opportunities, allowing interested parties to sell franchises and receive various special privileges such as discounted space rental rates.
