Yupharet went on to say that G-Yu Creative has opened the Thonglor Nihon Ichiba, a Japanese market in Bangkok’s Thonglor neighbourhood to further boost business opportunities between Thailand and Japan. She explained that the market, which is open daily until midnight, offers a variety of products imported from Japan, such as fish and crabs from Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo, as well as premium beef, vegetables and fruits. “We are committed to make Thonglor Nihon Ichiba a source of high-quality goods,” she said, adding that the market also offers online shopping services to facilitate customers.
