GSB to extend Bt5 bn in loans to operators
The Government Savings Bank (GSB) aims to provide Bt5 billion in loans to about 50,000 street-food operators this year, the bank’s president and chief executive officer, Chatchai Phayuhanaveechai, said yesterday.
The easy access to credit will help street-food operators improve their business and reduce non-performing loans in the segment, he said.
According to the bank’s survey, the market value of street foods in the country is worth about Bt40 billion a year.
