The availability of a great variety of beautiful fabrics, an abundance of local raw materials as well as a highly skilled Thai workforce inspired the opening of Narai Intertrade Co., Ltd. With a registered capital of one million baht, the company was initially established on 6 October 1989 by Khun Wasna and Mr. Vassilios R. Lathouras.

From humble beginnings to a globally established company, Narai Intertrade Co., Ltd. manufactures unique products for special occasions, incorporating the beauty of Thai textiles with new and innovative designs. These textile products are produced for export and registered in Thailand to such international markets in Europe, the U.S.A., Australia, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, United Arab Emirates, Taiwan, India, South Africa and Indonesia. Currently, Narai Intertrade Co., Ltd. has 60 outlets in 14 countries in Asia, Europe and North America.
