What Kind Of Business To Start In Thailand

By Alan Mahon


Great many foreigners would like to take advantage of the opportunity to open their own business in Thailand. However, most of them do not know where to start from and which is the biggest moneymaking industry in Thailand. The following Thailand finance advices will help you find the greatest Thailand's industry to invest money in.

In order to know more about the most profitable area in this country for starting successful business, you need to learn more about Thai demographics. You don't have to target foreigners only, as they make up a small percentage of sales. Rather opt for a business that targets both locals and tourists, as this will ensure you will get enough customers and respectively more profits.

You will greatly benefit, if you invest in business with less competition and which is well-liked by locals. Obviously, opening a go go bar is not a wise decision, as locals will not visit it because of moral and ethical principles in their society. If you target tourists only, you are likely to suffer losses, as tourists may choose many other venues available around.

You will surely get loyal Thai clients that will keep coming to you, if they like your business. If you target a foreign market only, you are unlikely to get good profits, neither to gain popularity.

Before catering your business to foreigners only, take into consideration the fact that tourism can be affected by military coups, which take place once every decade. This might greatly affect your business if it is targeting foreigners.

After revealing all these facts, we should conclude that targeting mainly local people is the best Thailand finance advice that businessmen can follow. The most lucrative and profitable industry in Thailand seems to be the food industry due to the three main reasons: first, Thais prefer to eat in groups rather than alone; second, the influence of Western food starts to prevail over the local kitchen and third, apartments in Thailand usually do not have ovens, stoves and other kitchen appliances.

Since the Thai apartments are not big, they cannot accommodate many guests and for this reason they prefer to eat outside. Usual practice of Bangkok workers is to eat on the go as a result of Western influence and the busy lifestyle. Rice meals that are traditional for Thais are currently replaced by sandwiches, pastries or breads for breakfast combined with coffee. For a lunch and dinner they attend fast food restaurants with family members and close friends.

Since food industry is considered to be the biggest moneymaking industry in Thailand, opening a fast food restaurant here will be a great business opportunity for you. If you want to attract locals, just provide comfortable atmosphere where they can dine out together. If you would like to attract foreigners as well, add some traditional Thai meals in the menu too.

You can even opt for opening mobile food trucks that will greatly benefit you in a capital and other Thai cities. They will soon gain popularity and attract both young people and workers who are too busy and would like to eat on the go.
