Mexico. Following the strategy defined by Panasonic Corporation in 2013, in which the Japanese company transformed its divisions worldwide to turn Business Solutions into one of the pillars to operate for the future, Panasonic de Mexico announces the availability of a complete offer of products, services and turnkey systems, under the commercial structure of the Solutions Group, focused on serving vertical markets.
Recently created and oriented to specific vertical markets, the Panasonic solutions group of Mexico is made up of expert personnel in different areas, from commercial to consulting, design, integration, implementation and maintenance of a complete system.
By fully joining the global strategy of the Japanese corporation, Panasonic de Mexico seeks to generate business from complete solutions for the vertical markets of retail, convenience store chains, restaurant chains and sports or entertainment venues. In addition to offering specialized technologies in areas such as energy saving and management or telecommunications that can serve in any type of industrial, commercial or public sector.
According to Yoshihiro Kanamaru, president of Panasonic de Mexico, the Solutions Group represents 20% of the company's current sales, while the rest of the divisions account for the remaining 80%. "Our challenge is to modify this composition and ensure that, in three years, the business of the Solutions Group contributes 50% of sales in Mexico. That is the trend that Panasonic Corporation companies follow and our team of collaborators works every day to join it," said Yoshihiro Kanamaru.
Business solutions are the result of Panasonic's experience, vision and innovation at the service of institutions, companies and professionals who require systems, services and tools to make their organizations more productive and efficient, while coexisting harmoniously with the environment and its social environment.
"In accordance with the company's strategy, we focused on the study and analysis of the business solutions that were most suitable for the Mexican market," says Kanamaru. "We reached out to our business partners, showed potential solutions to potential customers, and had the patience to evaluate different options. Thus, we decided that, in a first stage, we will focus on well-defined vertical markets to which we will offer a very specific range of solutions in which we are very competitive", concludes the Japanese executive.
