JAS Asset has bolstered its retail business by launching “Beans and Brown” to take over trendy coffee house chain Casa Lapin, with plans to introduce the brand overseas and list the subsidiary within three years.

JAS ASSET will invest Bt1.45 billion to expand into condominiums, open eight IT Junctions and create a marketing channel to boost its revenue by more than 30 per cent this year from Bt562 million in 2016.
