Thailand’s 50 Richest Wealth Tops $170B Led by Red Bull Family

News summary

Thailand's top five wealthiest billionaires collectively hold a fortune of $170.5 billion in 2025, marking an 11% increase from 2024 despite economic challenges such as trade tensions and political instability. The Yoovidhya family, led by Chalerm Yoovidhya, remains the richest with a record $44.5 billion, driven by Red Bull's global sales of nearly 13 billion cans and revenues of $12.9 billion in 2024. The Chearavanont brothers of the Charoen Pokphand Group hold second place with $35.7 billion, boosted by expansions in digital infrastructure and fintech, including approval to launch a virtual bank. Energy and telecom tycoon Sarath Ratanavadi rose to third with $12 billion following the successful merger of Gulf Energy Development and Intouch Holdings. Beverage magnate Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi ranks fourth with $10.5 billion, maintaining his fortune despite transferring some holdings to his children, while the Chirathivat family falls to fifth with $8.6 billion due to weak retail sentiment. Overall, nearly half of the richest individuals saw increased net worth, highlighting resilience among Thailand's wealthiest amid broader economic headwinds.
