About

Or Tor Kor Market is the fresh market of the Marketing Organization for Farmers, the Thai state enterprise known by its initials as Or Tor Kor. It was set up to give farmers and farmer groups a central place to sell their produce directly, without middlemen, and it has traded on the organization's own grounds in Chatuchak since 1977. For a visitor, that means a covered market where the country's fruit, vegetables, rice and dried goods are sold under one roof, much of it by or for Thai growers.

It suits food lovers, cooks and anyone curious about Thai produce and wants to see what is in season. The market is in north Bangkok, reached from exit 3 of MRT Kamphaeng Phet, which makes it an easy add-on to a day elsewhere in Chatuchak.

Who runs it

The Marketing Organization for Farmers is a state enterprise under the Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, created by royal decree in October 1974. Its first job was to establish markets as central trading points for farm produce and to help farmers sell directly to buyers. The Phahonyothin central market and its warehouses opened here in May 1977 on land leased from the State Railway of Thailand, and the organization's own head office still stands on the site.

What you will find

The general fresh market is the heart of the site, and the grounds also has a separate orchid and ornamental plant market, a wholesale market and a building showcasing high-quality agricultural products. The Marketing Organization for Farmers also runs an organic produce zone that Thailand's National Bureau of Agricultural Commodity and Food Standards inspected and certified in 2020.

The organization publishes current prices for staples sold at the market on its website each day, such as Sao Hai and Hom Mali rice, grated coconut, peanuts and garlic, which is a useful benchmark if you plan to buy rice or dried goods to take home.

Getting there

Take the MRT Blue Line to Kamphaeng Phet and use exit 3, or the BTS to Saphan Khwai. City buses 8, 63, 77 and 134 also stop nearby. Drivers can use the market's multi-storey car park.
