Natira Boonsri, Chief Executive Officer of Central Department Stores Group under Central Retail, speaking about the ‘Central 77th Anniversary 2024’ campaign, said, “On this special occasion, celebrating 77 years as a destination of inspiration, Central is offering a shopping experience filled with joy and delight. Every space at Central Chidlom has been meticulously transformed into a unique floral garden, blending the beauty of flowers with cutting-edge technology through the Samsung Galaxy Immersive Gardena, offering a never-before-seen floral show experience. A key highlight of this year is the introduction of seven new flower species, each reflecting Central’s distinct identity: Leader (a leader, not an imitator), Bold (bold, not pretentious), Innovative (innovative, not conventional), Inspiring (inspiring, not domineering), Fun & Playful (fun, not childish; playful, not mischievous), Authentic (authentic, not superficial), and Sophisticated (sophisticated, not naive). We have also collaborated with top Thai floral designers and botanical artists, including Naraphat, Penlert, give.me.museums, Wasteland, Spirulina Society, 6188 Flowers Bar, GOT A GOOD THING, and Pineapple Print Press, who have brought a variety of stunning floral installations to life. Additionally, there will be creative, floral-themed workshops for customers to enjoy, offering opportunities to create memorable experiences together.”
In addition to Central Chidlom’s signature annual flower festival, which has become a beloved tradition, this special occasion also sees Central partnering with renowned restaurants at Central Chidlom to create exclusive flower-themed dishes and beverages. For example, at Public Lane on the 1st floor, you can enjoy Flower Pizza at Mozza by Cocotte, visit Public Market for Blooming Rose Cake at The Rolling Pinn, or try flower-adorned dishes like the Steakburger, Philly Cheesesteak, and Loaded Tots at Little Market. You can also experience the unique flavors of Crispy Flower Salad and Crispy Flower Papaya Salad at Phed Phed Pop and indulge in exclusive floral drinks such as Butterfly Pea Milk and Premium Jasmine Milk Tea at Tawang (Pop-Up). On the 6th floor at Lofter, savor the Mango Blossom Yogurt, Floral Panna Cotta, and refreshing Rose Tea. These special dishes will be available from 24th to 28th October 2024. After the Avant Gardena-themed flower festival concludes, we will also collaborate with the Flower Matter project to recycle the flowers into paper, continuing our commitment to sustainability and the mindful use of natural resources.
