the take-up rate for retail in Bangkok was similar to the previous quarter, although small increases were registered in all zones during Q3 2012.
the take-up rate in all categories, except supporting retail, is more than 95%. Supporting retail commands only 87% and can be explained by the reliance on custom from workers in the offices that the retail component
supports. In addition, supporting retail space in some office buildings in the City area has been converted to office space or used for other purposes, such as educational and training centres.

Since the last quarter of 2010, the retail sales index has been higher than it was for the preceding five years, due to increasing political stability and retail developers launching new marketing campaigns to promote their centres. Floods in the last quarter of 2011 directly affected the retail
sales index as it dropped dramatically from the previous quarter. However, it significantly increased in the first quarter of 2012 and was on the ascend through Q3 2012.

Due to regulations and other factors affecting the expansion of largescale hypermarkets, retail developers are trying to maintain their market share with smaller models and friendlier concepts, such as convenience stores and mini-supermarkets. the standard size of a hypermarket is usually around 8,000 to 15,000 sq m, but due to the laws and the increasing land prices in some main cities, as well as opposition from the local people in some provinces, they are unable to expand completely. they have, there for, come up with a new, friendlier concept, using as little as300 sq m, and not over 2,000 sq m, for a convenience store format to expand into the community. 7-eleven has the lions share of the convenience store market in thailand, with around 69%, or more than 6,800 branches, followed by tesco lotus express with approximately 850 branches, which is just 8.6% of the total market share. 7-eleven and tesco lotus express plans to increase their branches by around 500 and 200 per year, respectively. these two brands make up the majority of convenience stores in thailand.
Central Retail Corporation (CRC) overcame Berli Jucker and the Saha group to win franchising rights to operate more than 700 Family Mart convenience stores in thailand, around 7.2% of the total market. in addition, CRC also owns the approximately 120 branches of tops Daily in thailand. CRC also plans to convert all tops Daily outlets to Family Mart starting next year. CRC plans to increase their convenience stores to 1,000 branches by the end of2012, and to approximately 1,500 in the next five years.
