Toshiba Lifestyle introduces 'master craftsmen' ambassadors
MANILA, Philippines — Japanese home solutions brand Toshiba Lifestyle launched products with new designs and introduced new brand ambassadors from the Philippines.
The latest product line-up from the brand are highlighted by new and upcoming refigerator, laundry, and cooking home appliances in Morandi, Silver, and Black designs.
The designs, particularly the Morandi ones, have been on the market since the beginning of 2024 but the launch held last September 11 at Taguig's Maybank Performing Arts Theater aims to bring these items to the forefront of better living.
To highlight these designs, Takumi ambassadors were introduced. The idea comes from the Japanese concept of "takumi" or "master craftsman," a title for persons who have developed their skills with experience, judgment, and expertise.
