Power Mall Bangkok: A Shopper’s Guide to the Mall Group’s 9 Branches
Power Mall is Bangkok’s mall-anchored electronics chain with 9 branches. The 2026 Electronica Showcase runs 21 May to 2 August with up to 50% off.
Power Mall is Bangkok’s main mall-anchored electronics chain, with nine branches inside the city’s top malls and a 38-brand flagship floor at Emporium on Sukhumvit. Right now, the chain is in the middle of its 2026 Electronica Showcase, a promotion that runs through 2 August with up to 50% off, cash coupons up to 13,000 baht, and M Cash Coupons up to 15,000 baht.
The Mall Group has also committed 400 million baht to revamp its Bang Kapi and Bang Kae stores, expanding each from 4,000 to 5,000 square metres. Together, the chain’s nine locations, the 38-brand Emporium floor, and the Bang Kapi and Bang Kae revamp sketch the form of a long-running commitment to physical retail at the top of the Bangkok market.
Power Mall, Bangkok’s Mall-Anchored Electronics Chain
Power Mall is the electronics arm of The Mall Group’s heritage of Bangkok shopping malls, the Thai retail company that runs Paragon Department Store, Emporium, and a roster of The Mall-branded shopping centres. Inside those malls, the Power Mall department handles gadgets, IT gear, mobile phones, and home appliances, and it currently operates nine branches around Thailand. Seven sit in greater Bangkok at Emporium, Paragon, Mall Ramkhamhaeng, Mall Tha Phra, Mall Ngamwongwan, Mall Bangkae, and Mall Bangkapi, with the other two at Mall Korat and BluPort Hua Hin.
Power Mall is not the only Thai chain in this space. Power Buy, a separate Thai electronics retailer, sits under Central Retail (the same parent as Central Department Store) and was established in 1996 as an electrical department of the Central Department Store. Central Retail’s brand page lists Power Buy at more than 100 branches across Thailand with 20,000 product lines from over 800 world-renowned brands. Power Buy’s about page describes its slogan as “Where will the tech take you” and its service concept as the “YES!” experience, two formulations that position the chain around innovation and customer service.
The most useful thing to know up front is that Power Mall is not a single shop. Each branch is sized to its mall, and the brand lineup shifts by location. Two of the branches, Emporium and Paragon, sit inside Bangkok’s most prestigious shopping centres. The Mall Bangkae branch is on the third floor of a 300,000-square-metre mall in the Bang Khae district. The other branches vary, but every Power Mall department shares the same basic format: a sales floor full of familiar brand names and a service desk staffed by the host mall.

The 38-Brand Flagship Floor at Emporium
Emporium’s Power Mall sits on the third floor of the mall at 622 Sukhumvit Road, in Bangkok’s Khlong Toei district. The store’s own Power Mall’s 38-brand floor at Emporium lists 38 tenants across IT, mobile, home appliance, and small-appliance categories. The list covers the major IT and mobile names (HP, Lenovo, Asus, Acer, Vivo, Oppo), the major appliance names (Samsung, LG, Sony, Panasonic, Toshiba, Hitachi, Bosch, Electrolux, Mitsubishi Electric), and the heating and cooling specialists (Daikin, Carrier, Temptech). It also includes smaller specialty tenants like Dyson, Nespresso, Tefal, Philips, Smeg, KitchenAid, De’Longhi, Kenwood, Blueair, and Yale.
The Mall Group’s own description of the floor sets the tone directly. The Mall Group describes the electronics zone as a place that “showcases a wide array of the latest and most popular gadgets available.” That single line is the operator’s framing in plain English: a curated mix of brands, all on one floor, with a sales desk to help shoppers move between them.
For a Bangkok shopper, the practical effect is that a single Power Mall visit at Emporium can cover most of the comparison work needed for a TV, washing machine, refrigerator, air conditioner, or smartphone. Shoppers can walk past Sony, Samsung, and LG TVs in a single stretch of aisle, then turn into the small-appliance section to weigh a Dyson against a Philips or a De’Longhi, then walk out to the escalator with a shortlist already in hand. The 38-brand spread on a single floor is unusual for Bangkok, where most electronics stores stock a narrower mix of brands. The full directory is published online for shoppers who want to check whether a specific brand is on the floor before they visit.
The chain is the only department-store-style electronics floor in Bangkok that combines this brand count with a fixed mall address, which is part of the reason it has held its position against newer electronics chains. The Emporium floor in particular works as a one-stop comparison trip for shoppers who want to see every major brand in one visit.
Why Mall Locations Still Win for Big-Ticket Buys
Buying a 65-inch TV or a new refrigerator is a hands-on decision for most Bangkok households, and the mall setting is the chain’s edge. Visitors can check the size, the finish, and the in-store demo before they pay. For purchases that run into five figures in baht, that kind of tactile comparison is hard to replicate on a phone screen.
The Mall Bangkae, the 300,000-square-metre mall in the Bang Khae district that opened in August 1994, illustrates the scale. Its Power Mall branch sits on the third floor alongside department stores, a Fantasia Lagoon water park, and a mall convention centre, so a family can turn a refrigerator purchase into a full afternoon out. The same logic applies at the other Bangkok branches, where the surrounding mall has parking, food courts, and enough other shops to absorb the non-shoppers in a group.
At the Emporium end of the chain, the format is the same even if the experience is different. Emporium sits on Sukhumvit Soi 24 beside Queen’s Park, with a direct footbridge to Phrom Phong Station on the BTS Sukhumvit Line, so the trip is quick from the Skytrain. The 38-brand floor sits on level 3, with the rest of the mall wrapping around it. For tourists, the mall setting is doubly useful: most flagship Power Mall branches sit inside malls that already appear on the standard Bangkok shopping itineraries, and several are reachable from BTS stations, which removes the need for a taxi or a hired car.
The 2026 Electronica Showcase, Step by Step
The current Electronica Showcase runs from 21 May 2026 to 2 August 2026, and the headline offer is straightforward: up to 50% off selected models, plus cash coupons up to 13,000 baht and M Cash Coupons up to 15,000 baht. KTC credit-card holders can also redeem KTC FOREVER points for an instant discount on qualifying sales slips, and most participating products are eligible for 0% interest installments for up to 10 months on purchases of 3,000 baht or more. The full list of participating brands and model-level terms is set by Power Mall, not by KTC, so the headline number varies by product.
The actual discount mechanics look like this, with the strongest tiers tied to credit-card days:
- Spending 10,000 baht or more on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday: 20% off
- Spending 3,000 to 9,999 baht on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday: 16% off
- Spending 1,000 baht or more any day of the week: 13% off
The promotion runs across all nine Power Mall branches, with the Bangkok-area and upcountry sites listed below. For full terms, see the Power Mall Electronica Showcase promotion terms.
- Emporium, Khlong Tan, Khlong Toei, Bangkok 10110
- Paragon, Pathum Wan, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330
- The Mall Ramkhamhaeng, Huamark, Bangkapi, Bangkok 10240
- The Mall Tha Phra, Bukkhalo, Thonburi, Bangkok 10600
- The Mall Ngamwongwan, Bangkhen, Mueang Nonthaburi, Nonthaburi 11000
- The Mall Bangkae, Bangkae Nuea, Bangkae, Bangkok 10160
- The Mall Bangkapi, Khlong Chan, Bangkapi, Bangkok 10240
- The Mall Korat, Nai Mueang, Mueang Nakhon Ratchasima, Nakhon Ratchasima 30000
- BluPort Hua Hin, Nong Kae, Hua Hin, Prachuap Khiri Khan 77110
The 2025 version of the same showcase ran from 19 June to 20 August 2025 and was branded “Power of A.I.” with deeper headline discounts of up to 60% on electronics, IT, and mobile phones, and 0% installments stretching up to 24 months. The 2026 run is the standard follow-up, with a smaller headline discount and a tighter M Card and credit-card structure. The chain runs the showcase as a recurring annual event, so shoppers who miss this window can expect a similar event later in 2026.
How The Mall Group Is Spending 400 Million Baht
The Mall Group announced a 400 million baht investment to revamp the two Power Mall stores at Bang Kapi and Bang Kae, with each store’s floor space growing from 4,000 to 5,000 square metres. Ratchata Suttapattanon, the chief business officer of the speciality business group at The Mall Group, said the added space would accommodate a bigger range of brands and larger electrical appliances that had previously been limited to the downtown branches. The figure signals that the operator still sees physical stores as the right vehicle for the Bangkok market.
The timing of the revamp was tied to industry tailwinds, with The Mall Group expecting the broader Thai electrical appliance market, including IT and mobile phones, to grow by 5% to 245 billion baht in 2023 according to chief executive of trading Jakkrit Keeratichokchaikun, as the Bangkok Post reported. That growth was driven by El Niño demand for air conditioners, and the Bang Kapi and Bang Kae floor expansions were meant to capture a share of it by giving shoppers in those districts a wider selection of large appliances without crossing the city.
Power Mall vs Power Buy at a Glance
Power Mall and Power Buy are two separate Thai electronics retailers that share several brand names but operate under different parents and in different segments of Thai retail. Power Mall sits under The Mall Group, the operator of Paragon Department Store and Emporium. Power Buy sits under Central Retail, the same parent as Central Department Store, and operates the standalone chain described on Central Retail’s Power Buy brand overview.
| Attribute | Power Mall | Power Buy |
|---|---|---|
| Parent | The Mall Group | Central Retail |
| Founded | (not stated) | 1996 |
| Branches in Thailand | 9 (per the 2026 KTC promotion) | more than 100 (per Central Retail) |
| Brand count | 38 at the Emporium flagship | over 800 (per Central Retail) |
| Product list | (not stated) | 20,000+ items (per Central Retail) |
| Slogan | (not stated) | “Where will the tech take you” (per Power Buy) |
| Format | Department inside flagship malls | Standalone electronics chain |
Power Buy’s slogan and its “YES!” service concept come from Power Buy’s own materials, and they position the chain around innovation and customer experience. Power Mall’s positioning is simpler: it is the electronics department of The Mall Group, anchored in each of the operator’s flagship malls and run as part of the broader mall experience. For Bangkok shoppers, the practical choice is about format, not price. Power Mall pairs a hands-on electronics visit with a full mall day (department stores, food courts, parking, cinema). Power Buy pairs a more focused electronics visit with a Central Department Store or a standalone branch experience.
Power Mall’s main annual electronics event is the Electronica Showcase, with the 2025 version branded “Power of A.I.” (running 19 June to 20 August 2025) and the 2026 version running from 21 May to 2 August 2026. Power Buy runs its own mid-year events with its own discount and coupon structure. A shopper who plans to buy a large appliance in Bangkok usually ends up visiting both chains during a sale season, since the headline discounts and brand lists often overlap but the specific model-level terms and bundled credit-card offers can differ.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Power Mall in Bangkok?
Power Mall is the electronics department of The Mall Group, the Thai retail operator that runs Paragon Department Store, Emporium, and a portfolio of The Mall-branded shopping centres. Power Mall departments are inside those malls, and the chain currently has nine branches around Thailand, seven of them in greater Bangkok. The flagship sits on the third floor of Emporium on Sukhumvit, with 38 brand tenants.
Where can tourists find Power Mall?
The two most tourist-friendly locations are Emporium on Sukhumvit (a short walk from Phrom Phong BTS Station via a direct footbridge) and the Paragon branch inside Siam Paragon in Pathum Wan, which is connected to Siam BTS Station. Both sit inside malls that already appear on the standard Bangkok shopping itineraries, and both accept standard credit cards and baht pricing.
Is Power Mall cheaper than Pantip Plaza or MBK?
Pantip Plaza and MBK Centre sit in different parts of the Bangkok electronics market. Pantip Plaza in Pratunam leans toward IT gear, components, and custom builds; MBK Centre is a multi-floor mall with mobile phones, accessories, and a wider range of price points. Power Mall is positioned closer to a department-store experience, with named-brand appliances, larger TVs, and bundled credit-card promotions. The chains are not direct substitutes; many Bangkok shoppers visit at least two of them in the same trip.
How do the KTC FOREVER points work at Power Mall?
KTC credit-card holders can redeem KTC FOREVER points for an instant discount at the cashier. During the 2026 Electronica Showcase, the discount is 20% on a sales slip of 10,000 baht or more on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday; 16% on a sales slip of 3,000 to 9,999 baht on those same days; and 13% on a sales slip of 1,000 baht or more any day of the week. The points redeemed cannot exceed the product price.
Does Power Mall deliver outside Bangkok?
The chain’s own delivery terms vary by branch. Some branches offer same-day delivery inside Bangkok and surrounding provinces, with installation support for large appliances. For upcountry delivery, the standard process is to arrange shipping through the host mall’s customer service desk at the point of sale, with installation handled by the brand or by a partner service network.
What is the difference between Power Mall and Power Buy?
Power Mall sits under The Mall Group and runs as a department inside the operator’s flagship malls, with nine branches and a narrower brand mix. Power Buy sits under Central Retail and runs as a standalone electronics chain, with more than 100 branches across Thailand, over 800 brands, and around 20,000 product lines. Both stock Samsung, LG, Sony, and other major names, but the trip is different: Power Mall pairs a TV or refrigerator purchase with the rest of a Bangkok mall visit, while Power Buy is closer to a dedicated electronics store.
