Is Carrefour still opening up at UD Plaza?

Postby harryhill » March 11, 2010, 4:34 pm

I read on here that Carrfour will open a store at UD Plaza, is this true? I've been past the place several times and haven't seen a single banner advertising it.

Are you sure that you read that on here??
I have never heard that they were opening there & cannot see any logic in them doing so either..

I heard Tesco from a security guard about a month ago.

Ah, maybe the mini-Tesco's - the 7/11 competitor - that would make sense... :D

The large Supermarket going up at UD Town was originally billed as being Carrefour when construction started. And the building is certainly not a 7-11 competitor.

If their plans haven't changed, I believe it's the building that still under construction where it will be located.

Look @ the photo bottom right corner.

I stand corrected... :oops:
Still can't see how the hell it makes sense to build a supermarket in the centre of town though. Deliberately increase the traffic flow in the centre of town sounds a cracking idea, especially when there are currently 5 supermarkets at various spots on the ring road!!

I can't see Carrefour putting more money into Udon, I wonder if the brave man who suggested building the one on the ring road still has his job?
Last time I went there I thought the place was closed. Pity as my first stop when visiting Pattaya is Carrefour, but here they have cut back on the product line so drastically its not even worth a visit for me.
