K.T. Thai Property vs Frasers vs WHA — Honest Comparison
We wrote this because every prospect asks the same question: “Why you and not Frasers or WHA?” Here is the honest answer. Use this to make the right call for your business — sometimes that won’t be us.
When K.T. Thai Property is the right choice
You are an SME, 3PL or foreign company that needs:
▸ 400-9,000 sqm (we don’t do 15,000+ sqm — go to Frasers/WHA for that)
▸ A 1-year lease minimum (vs Frasers/WHA standard 3-5 years)
▸ No common-area fees (saves 10-25 THB/sqm/mo)
▸ Lease approval in 7 days, not 6 weeks
▸ Family-run landlord with same-day decision authority
▸ Bilingual paperwork + BOI consultant introductions included
When Frasers Property Industrial is the right choice
You are a multinational with 5,000+ sqm requirements, you need:
▸ Multi-site portfolios across Thailand (Frasers has 60+ properties)
▸ Designated Free Zone properties
▸ Built-to-suit construction
▸ Long-term (5-10 year) committed leases at scale
▸ Corporate procurement process and legal frameworks
Frasers serves Toyota, Yamaha, Mitsubishi and large MNCs well.
When WHA Logistics is the right choice
You are a manufacturer in Chonburi/Rayong with deep supply chain integration needs:
▸ WHA Industrial Estates (Bo Win, Eastern Seaboard, Rayong) bundle utilities, security, BOI
▸ Built-in proximity to other manufacturers in the same estate
▸ EEC-specific tax incentives bundled with the lease
▸ Plug-and-play infrastructure (water treatment, power redundancy)
Best for manufacturers committed to a 10+ year EEC presence.

The bottom line
If your decision is made on speed, flexibility and total cost (not just headline rate), we usually win. If your decision is made on scale, infrastructure bundle and corporate procurement frameworks, Frasers or WHA usually win. We tell prospects this honestly because the deals we win when we are not the right fit cost us tenants in year 2.
