CP Extra, operator of the Makro-Lotus wholesale and retail business, is advancing its commitment to "stand by Thai people" through the "Thai Help Thai Plus" program, helping reduce living costs while creating economic opportunities for small business operators, community shops, and SMEs nationwide. The company is opening "Half-Price Market Plus" spaces within Makro-Lotus shopping centers and branches to increase sales channels, generate income, and stimulate grassroots economy. CP Extra emphasizes its role as both a "Happy Mall" and "platform of opportunity" connecting business operators, communities, and consumers to drive inclusive and sustainable Thai economic growth.

Under this initiative, CP Extra supports small business operators, community shops, and local merchants by offering free space to sell goods in Makro and Lotus mall areas across various provinces nationwide. This creates direct consumer access while stimulating grassroots economy circulation within communities. Additionally, Makro-Lotus offers opportunities for business operators to participate in various formats, including community market zones, pop-up shops, food courts, and fair events within branches to create employment, increase income, and expand business opportunities for small business operators throughout the country.

Makro-Lotus is among the retail networks most supporting the "Thai Help Thai Plus" program by offering the most free spaces for the general public in the country. This reflects CP Extra's role extending beyond a wholesale-retail business to become a "platform of opportunity" connecting business operators, communities, and consumers together. The company commits to supporting the grassroots sector continuously under the "Thai Help Thai Plus 60/40" concept, which aims to create mutual benefits for both merchants and Thai consumers nationwide.

Interested business operators and shops can contact Makro and Lotus branches for more details and can check participating branches at https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/home or scan the QR Code.
