PTT (Laos) Co., Ltd. has reaffirmed its strong commitment to business expansion and service excellence as it navigates intense market competition, political uncertainties, and global financial challenges.

The event highlighted strategic plans aimed at strengthening customer service networks and enhancing competitiveness in the Lao market.
Speaking at the seminar, Managing Director of PTT (Lao) Co., Ltd., Mr Peravej Na Ranong, said the company currently operates 59 PTT fuel stations nationwide and plans to open another nine in 2026, aiming for a total of 85 by 2030.
Alongside fuel services, PTT Laos has significantly grown its retail arm, with 112 Café Amazon branches currently in operation, and a target of 162 outlets by 2030.
Café Amazon is part of a global network of more than 4,000 branches worldwide.
To drive sustainable growth, PTT Laos is expanding its lifestyle business portfolio, particularly by integrating 7-Eleven convenience stores, Otteri Wash & Dry laundromats, electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, and natural gas services at PTT fuel stations.
These additions are designed to enhance customer convenience, provide greater product choices, and attract new consumer segments.
Mr Peravej also emphasised the company’s focus on innovation and digital transformation, with plans including the upgrade of Café Amazon store models, expansion of digital payment and card systems, and stronger cooperation with government agencies to promote local farmers and One District, One Product (ODOP) initiatives.

These efforts aim to generate income, support local products, and create job opportunities across the country.
“At present, many ODOP products will be sold through our network, and we expect this number to grow further in the future,” Mr Peravej said.
With Laos rapidly transforming into a regional land-linked country, PTT Laos views network expansion as a major opportunity to extend its services and business reach across the region.
During the seminar, representatives from PTT service stations, Café Amazon, 7-Eleven, and Otteri Wash & Dry presented their respective growth strategies and marketing development plans tailored to the Lao market.
One of the seminar’s highlights was the launch of a mobile calibration analytical laboratory, an initiative aimed at ensuring both the quality and quantity of fuel services.
This mobile unit is expected to significantly boost customer confidence by reinforcing transparency and service standards at PTT fuel stations nationwide.
With a clear vision, diversified business model, and strong partnerships, PTT (Laos) Co., Ltd. is positioning itself as a leading energy and lifestyle service provider ready to seize new opportunities in Laos and beyond.
At the same event, PTT (Laos) Co., Ltd. hosted a gala dinner and presented awards, comprising six diamond prizes to PTT fuel stations, 10 prizes to Café Amazon, 12 gold and silver awards to PTT fuel stations, and 20 prizes to Café Amazon.
