Ananda Development Partners with Grab to Enhance Urban Living
Ananda Development Public Company Limited, or ANAN, a leader in condominium development near mass transit and an innovator in urban living solutions, has once again made a significant announcement in the Thai real estate sector by becoming the first to partner with Grab, a leading transportation platform in Southeast Asia. This collaboration aims to elevate the quality of urban living through technology and innovation, providing exclusive benefits to Ananda residents across 20 projects, ensuring greater convenience, comfort, and safety in their daily travels.
Mr. Chanont Ruangkritya, CEO and Managing Director of Ananda Development, stated that Ananda understands the challenges faced in the capital city and is committed to developing Urban Living Solutions, which is the company's business philosophy. Improving the quality of life for urban residents is essential, as it not only reduces travel costs but also enhances convenience. This partnership with Grab represents a significant step towards providing better services to customers, ensuring a more comfortable experience for Ananda residents.

The collaboration between Ananda and Grab marks a first in the Thai real estate industry, bringing transportation services directly to residents and offering exclusive benefits. Residents will enjoy discounts starting at 50 THB for existing customers and 100 THB for new users, applicable for Grab rides to and from 20 Ananda projects. In addition to transportation, there are plans to introduce other services such as Grab Food, allowing customers to easily order from their favorite local restaurants. These services aim to enhance the quality of urban life further, with both parties prioritizing collaboration over mere marketing participation, sharing data to develop better solutions for Ananda and Grab customers alike.

Notably, Grab's user growth in the region has reached 360% annually since 2013, with passengers saving over half the travel time compared to traditional public transport. Additionally, Grab drivers have also seen a growth of over 340% per year since 2013, with accident rates significantly lower than the national average, ensuring safe travel for all users.

Mr. Pita Limjaroenrat, Executive Director of Grab Thailand, stated that Grab's mission since its inception has been to “move Southeast Asia forward”. Our services focus on saving time, speed, safety, and reliability for a better quality of life for passengers. We are thrilled to contribute to the convenience of Ananda residents, as Ananda is recognized as a leader in condominium development near mass transit and modern innovations. The collaboration aims to mutually benefit both parties, particularly in enhancing urban living quality, which is the primary objective of this partnership. In addition to travel benefits, Grab will also provide various services such as GrabCar, GrabCar Plus, GrabBike (Delivery), GrabBike (Win), GrabExpress, Grab for Business, JustGrab, and GrabPay, including GrabRewards.

“As a leader in urban residential development and the condominium market near mass transit, Ananda prioritizes the integration of new innovations and technologies into every aspect of real estate operations to enhance value for customers. This also addresses customer needs in the rapidly changing digital world and aims to sustainably improve urban living quality,” Mr. Chanont concluded.
