Published : 2016-01-11

Mr. Paul Kanjanapas, Managing Director of IMPACT Exhibition Management Co., Ltd., the operator of IMPACT Exhibition and Convention Center, Muang Thong Thani, has unveiled that the company has been entrusted to organize 136 events during November – December 2015 and January – February 2016 including
37 parties and 77 wedding ceremonies being held at IMPACT Muang Thong Thani and 22 functions outside the Center. This constitutes a 10% drop compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year in which the company organized a total of 153 events including 86 wedding parties, 40 annual corporate parties of both government agencies and private companies, and 27 functions outside the Center.       

Mr. Paul said: “The decreasing number of events we get to organize is the result of the economic slowdown that has a significant effect on our clients’ decision making as they have become more cautious in their spending, seeking value for money and maximizing their expenditure.”    

Despite a drop in occupancy rate, IMPACT remains confident of its ability to attract more events as it is a customer-led venue that can accommodate all sizes of events – small, medium and large – for a few selected or several thousand guests with a variety of venue choices ranging from luxurious function rooms, namely Jupiter Function Rooms, Phoenix Function rooms, Sapphire Function Rooms, Grand Diamond Ballroom, Royal Jubilee Ballroom, Venus Function Rooms, and Amber Function Rooms to IMPACT Challenger comprising three interconnected exhibition halls, IMPACT Exhibition Center comprising eight multi-purposed halls, and IMPACT Lakeside, a vast outdoor space suitable for all types of outdoor events. Meanwhile, IMPACT Catering provides one-stop solution for all catering needs, both inside and outside the Center, under the ISO 22000 food safety management standard.  

To boost the Center’s occupancy during the festive season, IMPACT has introduced three promotional packages including 1.) ‘Pool Party Package’ for private poolside gatherings which costs
30,000 – 50,000 baht, 2.) ‘Sport and Family Day Package’ specially designed for government agencies and private companies planning to organize sports days or annual corporate parties, and 3.) ‘Your Dream Wedding Package’ that offers cocktail-style wedding with prices starting from 790 baht per person. The venue for the Pool Party and Sport and Family Day packages is Thunder Dome, Muang Thong Thani.

With its flexible and diverse event spaces, professional catering services, and the recently-launched special packages, IMPACT is more optimistic of attracting more corporate functions, private parties, and wedding ceremonies. The company also expects a rise in the Center’s occupancy rate in early 2016, which will deliver more revenue and enable the company to achieve revenue target of 2.5 billion baht for fiscal year 2015 ending March 31, 2016.
