Maj. Gen. Patchara Rattakul, Chief Executive Officer of Haad Thip Public Company Limited, a leader of bottled soft drinks in southern Thailand, talks about celebrating the company’s five full decades of steady growth and contribution to the growth of society and communities in 14 southern provinces in which the company is operating to improve the quality of life, economy, society and environment sustainably.
“As the leader of the non alcoholic beverage leader in the South focusing on sustainable development, we have transformed our organization using technology and innovations to strengthen our competitiveness through this digital transformation era. Meanwhile, we still focus on our social responsibility and we are committed to minimising our impact on the environment alongside strengthening our business.
Over the past 50 years, Haad Thip has played a role in helping communities in the South through education, sports, charity and public services. We’ve also improved the quality of life and the environment through more than 125,000 projects that we support or organise. Today, we recognise the urgent need for protecting and restoring the environment, as it has a direct impact on the people's quality of life and the future of the country's economy.

Our company supports and encourages all departments to utilise energy efficiently to tackle climate change. We use solar energy where electricity is generated from the plant's rooftop to run some of our production, whilst using LGV and NGV for transport and distribution. Additionally, we keep track of our carbon footprint and calculate our greenhouse gas emission in order to effectively reduce it.
To solve water shortage, our company initiated Raknam Project in 2007 to conserve and manage water resources sustainably. We are able to return water to communities and nature more than 100% of the water used in our beverage production. We work with communities to build check dams and mountain irrigation systems. To tackle waste problem, Haad Thip has utilised environment-friendly innovations in our Namthip water packaging, thereby reducing the use of plastic by 35% while making sure it’s 100% recyclable. Namthip’s new PET bottles are engineered to compress when twisted so it takes up less space. We also set up Marine Camp Project together with Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation and Reef Guardian Thailand to tackle marine and beach waste. We also have a nursery for coral reefs to create a better home for marine animals and protect the shores.

We’ve also shown strong commitment in helping young footballers achieve their dreams through a project that we’ve continued for a long time. Footballers from Coke Cup and Haad Thip Youth Cup have a chance to pursue their dreams of becoming professional and national players. Their success also inspires Thai youth in the South to play sports and become professional players.
