‘The Old Siam Plaza’ celebrates its 30th anniversary with an investment of over 400 million baht, unveiling a new look as a “business hub – lifestyle shopping – residential living” in the heart of Rattanakosin Island, situated in a prime trading location of “Phahurat – Tri Phet – Charoen Krung – Burapha.” The plaza attracts renowned brands to enhance its offerings and food court, adding vibrancy to the lifestyle and driving sustainable business growth.

Mr. Apichai Siridumrongphun, Assistant Managing Director of Commercial Building Business at Siam Sindhorn Co., Ltd., revealed that the company is committed to developing “The Old Siam Plaza” into a shopping and trading center for both Bangkok residents and visitors from other provinces who come to do business with partner stores. This success has been ongoing for nearly 30 years since its official opening in 1993. This transformation marks another significant step in the development plan to revamp “The Old Siam Plaza” into a vibrant center for “business – lifestyle shopping – residential living,” providing new experiences for the local community and accommodating the increasing number of international tourists each year.

A Friendly Mixed-Use Project in a Trading Area

“The Old Siam Plaza” is a unique and long-established business hub, known for its wholesale gold shops, jewelry production, diamonds, firearms, and Thai fabrics. It is also one of the largest silk fabric centers in the country, importing lace from abroad, and is a renowned food center for traditional Thai sweets. Additionally, it offers comfortable residential living in the city center, conveniently located near the BTS Skytrain. It is the first mixed-use project on Rattanakosin Island and the largest plaza in this area, covering 13.61 rai, previously known as the Ming Muang Market, a long-standing main trading area of Bangkok.

“With its prime location adjacent to four major trading streets—Phahurat, Tri Phet, Charoen Krung, and Burapha—there is a continuous flow of people utilizing its services, including international tourists visiting nearby attractions such as the Grand Palace, Wat Phra Kaew, and enjoying traditional Thai performances at Sala Chalermkrung, as well as dining on Thai sweets at the shopping center.”

In addition to the unique charm of this trading area filled with diverse products and services, such as silk, diamond shops, and rare traditional sweets, transportation is convenient, whether by private car, as the shopping center offers parking for over 1,100 vehicles, or via the MRT at Sam Yot station.

A Landmark for ‘Business – Lifestyle Shopping – Residence’

The development plan for “The Old Siam” includes a complete renovation of both the plaza and residential areas, while maintaining the classic colonial architectural style, covering a service area of 98,500 square meters.

The plaza area, totaling 17,945 square meters, will be redesigned and decorated to be more contemporary, with retail spaces adjusted to meet the needs of both business customers (B2B) and retail customers (B2C).

The plaza’s first floor will continue to be a hub for leading diamond and gold wholesale shops, imported lace, jewelry stores, and renowned traditional Thai sweets.

Passing on a Prosperous Business to the Next Generation

“The highlight of The Old Siam Plaza is that over 50% of the shops are B2B businesses, representing high purchasing power, creating business opportunities for entrepreneurs from generation to generation, such as jewelry and diamond shops. If you need premium quality diamonds or wholesale gold, think of The Old Siam Plaza.”

As for the development approach for “The Old Siam Plaza,” in addition to modernizing the building, offering unique and diverse products, and services that cater to the lifestyles of all age groups, it also aims to create business opportunities by adjusting rental formats to meet demands and support entrepreneurs with flexibility, offering both short-term and long-term lease agreements to facilitate business operations and residential living.

A New Step Towards Success

Mr. Apichai stated that based on the experience and commitment of the team that developed the project “Velaa Sindhorn Village Langsuan,” which received a positive response in managing spaces that cater to urban lifestyles,

the development of “The Old Siam Plaza” aims to bring vibrancy to the local community and drive sustainable business growth by planning to increase tenants in retail and service sectors to better meet the demands of the B2C market, focusing on creating another one-stop service destination in the city center, welcoming a new generation and international tourists to utilize the shopping center more.
