Frasers Property (Thailand) Public Company Limited’s experience and expertise along with the international prestige of Frasers Property have earned the trust of NCC Management & Development Co., Ltd. for the development of the new Queen Sirikit National Convention Center (QSNCC). The project is now half completed and running on schedule for a September 2022 reopening. Frasers Property Thailand today unveiled its 5 highlights to enhance the uniqueness of the QSNCC. This will serve QSNCC’s vision of being the ultimate world class event platform for all.

Mr. Withawat Koottatep, First Executive Vice President - Commercial Development of Frasers Property Commercial (Thailand), said: “It is Frasers Property’s honor to contribute in the redevelopment of the new QSNCC, expanding its space capacity by five times to 300,000 sq.m. or equal the size of over 50 soccer fields. The revamped convention center is designed to accommodate all types of meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions (MICE) events, from local to global scale, with cutting-edge facilities and a first-class security system. The development concept is initiated through the idea of maintaining and building on the legacy of QSNCC as a way to project the contemporary character of the QSNCC. Besides construction technology and know-how Frasers Property Thailand has brought to the project, we have also brought together professionals from various fields to transform QSNCC into Asia’s new world class event platform.”

“The remodeling of QSNCC into a large-scale development features an additional massive underground space by 45% for retail and 3,000 car parking lots. Developing this highly complex construction project within time constraints is the main challenge we are facing particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, with our proactivity and well-thought-out plans, FPT is confident in delivering the topnotch convention center within the agreed timeline,” Mr. Withawat added.

To support the upgrading of the QSNCC as the ultimate inspiring world class event platform for all, five highlights of the enhancement are featured.
