Com7 has teamed with Kasikornbank (KBank) to expand the BaNana store chain, enabling younger consumers to access IT products and services more conveniently.

Their first joint BaNana pilot branch was in Yasothon, and the two companies plan to have 20 more mini-branches by year’s end offering more diverse retail business and comprehensive financial services in Thailand, says Com7 CEO Sura Khanittaweekul.

The listed company aims to achieve 600 branches under its management by the end of the year, up from 434 last year. Com7 has set an income-growth target of not less than 15 per cent for this year. Last year’s income came in at THB22.584 billion and net profit at THB608.8 million, both records for the business.
