Toshiba Machine Co., Ltd. (TOKYO: 6104) has established a local subsidiary in Italy in order to enhance the sales and service support systems of the Toshiba Machine Group’s products in the European market. Our newest subsidiary is now fully operational.

Purpose of establishing a local subsidiary in Italy

The Toshiba Machine Group already has a well-established local subsidiary in England which has been in operation for years.
