Central Pinklao

Central Pinklao sits at 7/1 Borommaratchachonnani Road in the Arun Amarin sub-district of Bangkok Noi, on the Thonburi side of the Chao Phraya River, and opened in 1995 as Central Retail’s primary retail asset west of the river. The property carries roughly 60,900 square metres of leasable space across a connected two-tower podium (Central Pinklao Tower A and Tower B), and functions as the anchor department store and mall destination for the Bangkok Noi, Bang Phlat, and Taling Chan residential districts.

The anchor structure runs on a Central Department Store branch, a Tops Market grocery, a Big C hypermarket-style anchor at the connected Tower A footprint, an SF Cinema multiplex, and a Kinokuniya bookstore. The mall connects to the Pinklao commercial corridor along Borommaratchachonnani Road, which functions as the primary retail spine for the Thonburi residential catchment.

Fashion covers Bata, Charles & Keith, Converse, G2000, H&M, Jaspal, Kloset, Levi’s, LOFT, Uniqlo, and Zara, with domestic Thai brands AIIZ, CC DOUBLE O, and Jaspal handling the mass-market Thai fashion category that trades reliably in family-oriented Bangkok malls. Athletic runs through Adidas, JD Sports, Nike, and Skechers.

Beauty holds a comprehensive mass-market slate through Boots, Innisfree, Nature Republic, Sephora, The Body Shop, Watsons, and Yves Rocher, covering both Korean beauty and Western prestige, with Wacoal handling the intimate apparel category. The F&B operation runs through Auntie Anne’s, Baskin Robbins, Burger King, Dairy Queen, KFC, McDonald’s, Sizzler, and Starbucks, along with an extensive Thai and Asian food court that draws heavily from the surrounding residential blocks.

The mall’s positioning against the Bangkok mall market differs materially from the East-of-Chao-Phraya destinations. Where Central Embassy, Siam Paragon, and EmSphere compete on luxury tenants and tourism flows, Central Pinklao trades on the daily-need and family-shopping catchment from the Thonburi residential blocks. That structural difference has kept the property’s tenant plan focused on mass-market fashion, quick-service dining, and comprehensive beauty rather than luxury imports.
