CP AXTRA Public Company Limited (SET: CPAXT), operator of the wholesale and retail businesses Makro–Lotus’s, reaffirmed its leadership in food waste management for environmental sustainability by participating in the Asia Environmental and Waste Management Expo (Asia EnwastExpo) 2026. The event, one of Asia’s leading exhibitions and conference platforms for environmental solutions and waste management, was held under the theme “Empowering Asia’s Green Future.” The expo serves as a key forum for knowledge exchange, innovation sharing, and discussions on effective resource management to address Asia’s environmental challenges.
On this occasion, Mrs. Siriporn Dechsingha, Chief Corporate Sustainability and Communications Officer of CP AXTRA Public Company Limited, joined a panel discussion titled “From Food Waste to National Opportunity: The Role of Government and Retail in Transforming Thailand’s Food System.” She shared insights into Thailand’s food waste situation, which remains a significant challenge in terms of environmental impact and efficient resource utilization. The retail sector plays a crucial role as a key connector between producers and consumers.
During the session, CP AXTRA presented concrete case studies on food waste reduction, including systematic segregation and management of surplus food, redistribution of edible food to communities and underserved groups through partner networks, and the use of data and technology to analyze and plan food loss reduction from upstream operations. These initiatives not only help mitigate environmental impacts but also generate long-term economic and social benefits.
CP AXTRA’s participation in Asia EnwastExpo 2026 reflects the company’s strong commitment to contributing to Asia’s green economy. The company continues to foster integrated collaboration across sectors to transform “food waste” into “national opportunity,” and to help build a balanced, inclusive, and sustainable food management system for the long term.
