Market Sustainability Milestone
According to a report by Thai Post, Simummuang Market, managed by Don Muang Pattana Co., Ltd., has officially received the Carbon Footprint for Organization (CFO) certification for the year 2025. The certificate was presented by Dr. Wijarn Simachaya, Chairman of the Thailand Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (TGO), to Irin Phataraprasit, Director of Corporate Development at Don Muang Pattana.
Why This Matters
This certification marks a significant step in the market's 'Simummuang Sustainable City' vision. For residents and visitors, this initiative highlights the market's commitment to monitoring and reducing greenhouse gas emissions within its operations.

What Remains to be Confirmed
While the receipt of the CFO certification confirms that the market has successfully registered its carbon footprint data with the TGO for 2025, the specific long-term reduction targets and the concrete operational changes that will follow this registration have not been detailed. Observers will be looking to see how these environmental goals translate into tangible improvements in waste management and energy efficiency within the market's daily operations.
