Miss Grand Satun (Thai: มิสแกรนด์สตูล) is a Thai provincial beauty pageant which selects a representative from Satun province for the Miss Grand Thailand national competition,[1][2][3][4] founded in 2016 by an event organizer, Janrob Rukwijit (เจนรบ รักวิจิตร).[5][6]

Satun's representatives have never won the main title since the first competition in the Miss Grand Thailand pageant in 2016. The highest placement obtained by them is the 5th runner-up finalist; won in 2024 by Emma Martini.[7]

In 2016, after Miss Grand Thailand began franchising the provincial competitions to individual organizers, who would name seventy-seven provincial titleholders to compete in the national pageant, the license for Satun province was purchased by a local entrepreneur, Janrob Rukwijit (เจนรบ รักวิจิตร),[5][6] who organized the first Miss Grand Satun competition on 12 April of that year, as a sub-event of an annual charity fair "Mother of the Land Fund" (กองทุนแม่ของแผ่นดิน),[1] in which Nittiya Daokrajai was announced the winner.[5][6]

Jenrob lost the competition license in early 2017 after sending the Miss Grand Satun 2017 winner, Punyaporn Ratcharit, to compete at another regional pageant, which violated the rule of the national organizer not to allow all provincial titleholders to participate in other pageants without completing the year of reign.[8][9] The 2017 provincial contest was then held again by new licensees, Sittichai Wangklin and Siptheeratham Yingyong, to determine the replacement representative.[10]

The pageant was skipped once; in 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand, the national organizer was unable to organize the national event, and the country representative for the international tournament was appointed instead.[11]
