Siam Piwat introduces its Luxury Experience Creator Team, collectively curating and enhancing one of the world’s best luxury destinations

As the number one leader in Thailand’s luxury market, Siam Piwat, a leading real estate and retail developer, the owner and operator of Siam Paragon, Siam Center, and Siam Discovery, a joint venture partner of ICONSIAM, ICS, and Siam Premium Outlets Bangkok – the only luxury outlet mall in Thailand, is unveiling the secret behind its success in establishing its supremacy in the luxury market as well as in creating destinations that bring together one of the world’s most comprehensive arrays of luxury brands. In addition to record-high sales, Siam Piwat drew over 14 million Thai and international visitors in the first eight months of 2023, a 46% year-on-year increase, with an average daily spending of THB 8,500 per person, compared to the previous 5,500 baht per person per day.

Siam Piwat’s strategy for solidifying its position as the developer of Thailand’s number one luxury destination is creating an extraordinary shopping experience, especially by working with various luxury brands and empowering them to take full advantage of their brand image and deliver memorable customer experience. Thanks to this strategy, all luxury brands have been met with an overwhelming positive reception across all product types and seen an astounding sales growth of over 400%, which is among the highest growth rates in the world, enabling Siam Piwat to secure leadership in Thailand’s most affluent customer base. This success has led to the launch of LUXE Hall at Siam Paragon – a new space for luxury products that will expand the floorspace for luxury brands from approximately 10,000 square meters to 20,000 square meters. This zone will be home to 20 new stores for renowned luxury brands like Givenchy, Miu Miu, Roger Vivier, and Valentino, and luxury watch brands like Vacheron Constantin, Jaeger Le Coultre, IWC, Panerai, Piaget, Chopard, and Franck Muller, as well as the Italian luxury fashion brand like Loro Piana, which will launch its first boutique in Thailand at Siam Paragon.

At the same time, ICONSIAM is also expanding its luxury product zone to twice the original size to accommodate a parade of new luxury brands, which will come together to create iconic, one-of-a-kind experiences that cater to all lifestyles and the luxury living of the future.

The driving force that has played a pivotal role in propelling Siam Piwat to the forefront of the luxury market, developing its unique and distinct identity, and inspiring people worldwide is none other than its team, comprising seasoned veterans with exceptional expertise who excel in collaborating with premier partners both locally and globally to curate distinct products and deliver exclusive experiences before anyone.

At the heart of Siam Piwat is the Work as One corporate culture, which places emphasis on employee participation, as it holds the key to success in developing world-class destinations and delivering distinct experiences.
