Central Pattana to Open “Central Krabi” on 24 October 2025 – Krabi’s First Mixed-Use Landmark and Thailand’s First Sustainable-Lifestyle Shopping Centre, featuring a full lineup of leading brands
Central Pattana Public Company Limited is set to officially open Central Krabi on 24 October 2025, introducing the first mixed-use landmark in the heart of the province. The project comprises a shopping centre, residences, condominium, and a hotel. More than just a shopping destination, Central Krabi will play a key role in shaping the future of Krabi’s tourism and stands as Thailand’s First Sustainable-Lifestyle Shopping Centre, positioning the province as a global destination for sustainable travel. Designed as a hub for sustainable tourism experiences, it seamlessly connects people, nature, and local communities. Central Krabi is also the first shopping centre in Thailand to pursue EDGE certification – Zero level, underscoring world-class sustainability standards. The centre will feature more than 300 stores, combining more than 300 leading international and Thai brands with curated local businesses to offer new lifestyle experiences for discerning travelers from around the world.
Inspired by “Every Essence of Krabi” – A Shopping Centre Truly Designed for the Community
Drawing inspiration from “Every Essence of Krabi”, the development integrates the province’s culture, community, and natural beauty into every dimension of its design. The shopping centre introduces five distinctive zones – Krabi Bay, Beachwalk, Palm Square, Fisherman’s Village, and Andaman Market – each reflecting the vision of a true community space – not just a shopping destination, but a centre of pride.
A True Model of a Sustainable Shopping Centre
Central Krabi has been developed under a holistic vision of sustainability, with environmental considerations embedded throughout its design. As the first shopping centre in Thailand to pursue EDGE certification – Zero level, the project features more than 14,400 square metres of solar panels, eco-friendly construction materials, and EV charging stations. Waste management follows an upcycling approach that transforms discarded and surplus materials into resources for buildings, road surfaces, and even souvenirs. The project also creates shared value with the community through CSV initiatives, generating local income and advancing the circular economy, while working hand-in-hand with tenants under the Green Partnership program to bring sustainable practices into reality.
