Central Retail reaffirms its global leadership in sustainability by winning the prestigious Gold Award in the Best Community Programme category for the 5th consecutive year at the 17th Global CSR & ESG Summit and Awards 2025. The event, hosted by The Pinnacle Group International—an internationally recognised independent organisation based in Singapore—celebrates excellence in social and environmental initiatives.

This year, Central Retail received the award for its Learning Center of Agricultural and Community Products Development at Theppana, Thep Sathit District, Chaiyaphum Province. The initiative aims to enhance the local agricultural sector by transitioning from monoculture farming to sustainable agriculture through the promotion of Hass avocado cultivation, a globally popular variety.

Central Retail has played a key role in supporting the development of farmland, facilitating knowledge sharing, enhancing value-added processing, and expanding markets to ensure greater consumer reach. Additionally, the company has implemented a proactive marketing strategy through Tops, Jing Jai Farmers’ Market, and other sales channels to enhance recognition of Thai farmers’ produce, create stable incomes, and foster sustainable community growth while preserving the environment.

At the 17th Annual Global CSR & ESG Summit and Awards 2025 in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Mr. Chalermchai Pornsiripiyakool, Head of CSR and International Corporate Affairs at Central Retail Vietnam, accepted the award on behalf of the company.
