The Mall Group’s World-Class Premium Supermarket Gourmet Market unveils “Call Chat Shop” grocery shopping service to provide convenience to modern homemaker and working-age groups through a seamless experience of calling or chatting. With new features, a consistent standard is employed across all branches where customers can shop for over 30,000 products.
Supawut Chaiprasitkul, Chief Business Officer – Supermarket & Food, The Mall Group Co., Ltd. said that since the COVID-19 pandemic, consumer behavior, including supermarket shopping, changed significantly with more shoppers turning to online channels. Some people also do not have time to visit supermarkets. Thus, Gourmet Market launched a call-to-order service so customers can shop for supermarket products by phone at each branch. Another channel for grocery shopping is Line chat where customers can inquire about products, fresh ingredients available each day, and promotions. The chat channel was well received among modern homemakers who received attention from staff.
“Due to the aforementioned success, we developed both channels into ‘Call Chat Shop’ to create a seamless shopping experience with the same standards across supermarket branches. In addition to serving modern homemakers and working-age groups who seek convenience, this new platform is a strategy to collect data to increase our customer base instead of opening new branches,” Supawut shared.
Ploychompoo Umphuj, Group General Manager – Merchandising Supermarket, The Mall Group Co., Ltd. added that Call Chat Shop is within reach through calling and chatting so customers’ grocery shopping experience is enhanced. The staff are professional and ready to answer calls and chats, eliminating wait time, and can converse in Thai and English. They can recommend products and promotions so customers get the best value and products they seek. There are more than 30,000 products available: premium ingredients, fresh food, seafood, dry food, vegetables, premium-grade fruits, frozen food, processed food, milk, eggs, dairy products, snacks, drinks, consumables, pet products, preorder products, holiday goods, holiday hampers, and exclusive imported products only available at Gourmet Market.
