OTOP
Patong
Market
Phuket
promotes
locally
made
products
sourced
from
subdistricts
(tambon)
throughout
Thailand.
Its
name
is
an
acronym
for
‘One
Tambon
One
Product’.
The
market
encourages
village
communities
to
improve
their
products'
quality
and
marketing.
A
superior
product
is
selected
from
each
tambon
to
receive
formal
branding
as
an
OTOP
product.
Expect
plenty
of
traditional
handicrafts,
silk
garments,
cotton
products,
pottery,
fashion
accessories,
household
items
and
regional
food.
Highlights
of
OTOP
Patong
Market
Phuket
:-
OTOP
Patong
Market
Phuket
is
on
Rat-U-Thit
Road,
directly
opposite Dusit
D2
Phuket and Hard
Rock
Café.
The
market
gets
busy
when
small
bars
within
its
compound
start
to
fill
up
in
the
late
evenings.
Stall
owners
rarely
hassle
passersby,
which
you
often
encounter
on Soi
Bangla and Beach
Road.
You
can
combine
a
night
out
of
drinking
at
the
(mostly
Aussie)
bars
lining
the
alleys
with
some
souvenir
shopping.
There’s
a
money
exchange
bureau
at
the
corner
of
the
market
on
the
main
road,
as
well
as
several
ATMs.
Along
the
well-lit
alleyways,
you’ll
find
several
restaurants,
mobile
food
carts,
a
designated
whiskey
shop,
and
a
Black
Canyon
Coffee
outlet.
