Revamped Tesco Lotus Extra fully open from today
PHUKET: Renovations on the Tesco Lotus Extra Phuket mall, located off the bypass road in Sam Kong, were recently completed and the revamped mall is now fully open for business as of today.
Tesco says that more shops, famous brands, and a new food court have been added to the mall, including Starbucks, Fuji, Giordano, Air Asia, as well as Japanese apparel store Uniqlo.
To celebrate the launch of the refreshed mall, Tesco Lotus will be holding a grand opening event on Thursday, May 1, where there will be giveaways, including cash coupons, and special activities such as meeting with celebrities, dining, shopping, cooking and afternoon tea on offer.
Tesco Lotus says that 9,000 new product lines have been added, including 700 new local and international brand products in the fresh food department.
The new “Digital Zone” consolidates all new technology products in a customer-friendly shopping environment. The clothing section has received a makeover with a new display for F&F – an international fashion brand sold exclusively at Tesco Lotus. A new “Virtual Fitting Kiosk” now allows customers to “Touch, Try and Share” how they look in F&F outfits.
New shops have also been added to the sales floor to provide essential services to customers, including a pharmacy, an optician, a money and services center – which offers financial services such as bill payment, personal loans, Tesco credit cards and insurance.
Tesco Lotus Extra Phuket now also offers an online shopping service where customers can order from tescolotus.com for home delivery.
Customer services at Tesco Lotus Extra Phuket have also been further upgraded with new checkout designs and self-service checkouts, another alternative which Tesco says will provide more convenience to customers.
In addition, over 80 new parking spaces have been added, as well as dedicated parking zones for special groups of customers, such as the elderly and mothers with children.
