The event was held at Amata City Chonburi Lotus’s Plaza selling “Fa Lan” mangoes from Phichit province.
In the cooperation between the different parties, IEAT will lead to publicize the campaign among manufacturers in industrial estates and to encourage them to pre-order seasonal fruits such as mangoes, mangosteen, durian, longan etc.. The Thai Post will be responsible to establish an order management system and support delivery to manufacturers. In addition, selling areas will be set up for farmers within industrial estates.
The partnership was formed to help fruit farmers by implementing measures to manage the up-coming peak season of fruits and to tackle an eventual oversupply of fruits. The campaign is an initiative by the Ministry of Commerce led by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Commerce Mr. Jurin Laksanawisit.
