Mother Marketing Public Company Limited, or MOTHER, a retailer and wholesaler of consumer goods under the Mother Supermarket and Mother Marche brands in Krabi, Phang Nga and Surat Thani provinces, expects sales in the fourth quarter of 2026 to continue growing. Managing Director Ekapong Chokchaiwittat said the main driver is the year-end high tourism season, as foreign visitors arrive in Krabi. The Krabi Provincial Office of Tourism and Sports forecasts that 2026 will see more than 5.2 million tourists, generating more than 100 billion baht in revenue, with the year-end high season alone expected to see at least 20 billion baht in circulation, significantly lifting sales at each branch in tourist areas. Meanwhile, in late November, airlines from the Nordic countries are preparing to launch new direct routes into Krabi: Finnair on the Helsinki-Krabi route and Scandinavian Airlines on the Copenhagen-Krabi route, each operating two flights a week, reflecting Krabi airport's readiness to handle international flights. Ekapong said the new direct routes will provide an added boost to the local economy and help MOTHER's revenue expand in line with its operating plan.
