The central herbal raw materials market was opened at TalaadThai Market in Pathum Thani’s Khlong Luang district on Monday, aiming to promote Thai herbs and spices on the international stage.

The Thai Agro Exchange (Talaadthai), backed by the Commerce Ministry’s Department of Internal Trade, is ready to roll out a caravan of grocery trucks – popularly known as pumpuang – to provision citizens during the Covid-19 crisis and discourage the stockpiling of goods.
