Toshiba's milestone
The computer system department of Toshiba Europe GmbH announced that it will use its new Polish office to move in on the personal-computer market, which is growing at an impressive pace.
In the third quarter of 2005 the total value of the Polish PC market increased by 33 percent compared with last year, whereas the laptop market has risen by a massive 176 percent. Supporting the further development of the market will be the main goal of the new agency.
"The decision is a milestone," says Andrzej Kuniak, general sales director of the computer system department for Central Europe at Toshiba. "Opening an office that will support our business partners on a local level is highly beneficial for our customers. We intend to be one of the top three laptop sellers by the end of this year and become a leader of portable devices in Poland in 2006."
