“Tourism is one of the key drivers of economic growth for Thailand. In 2017, the Ministry of Tourism and Sports projects tourism revenues will increase by approx. 8.17% to 2.71 trillion baht. And of this revenue, 1.78 trillion baht will come from foreign tourists. Thailand has welcomed 16.8 million foreign visitors in the first half of 2017 and gained 852 billion baht. The fourth quarter is historically the high season for tourism in Thailand. From these promising numbers, there is no doubt that total revenue from the tourism industry will meet targets for the year. High tourism growth drives related business such as hotels, restaurants and service providers to enhance and improve their capacity and efficiency. Food & Hotel Thailand is a 'must-attend' event for trade professionals to find new ideas, new products, learn new skills and connect with the world’s best companies.”Mr. Sanan Angubolkul, Vice Chairman, The Thai Chamber of Commerce
