To date, PTT Outdoor has grown to more than 200,000 strong followers in their social media channel and has maintained a 4.9 average star rating out of almost 2700 reviews from their customer.

Their latest project, the #ileavenotrace movement, aims to donate part of their revenue from sales of the product range to tree replanting effort in Sabah. Their target? 30,000 trees within 3 years.
