The food industry has continuously played an important role in Thailand???s economy, and today, the world???s food demand tends to increase due to the increased population and prosperity in many key markets such as ASEAN countries, China, India and Russia. Also, another reason for the world???s rising food demand is the effect of natural disaster in many food-producing countries. Thailand???s food export industry has directly benefited from this and has expanded substantially, especially during the first three month of 2011 when the total export value reached US$6,287.67 million, or an 18.66% increase from the same period in 2010.
