Toshiba Johnson Elevators India (TJEI) is uplifting lives through its technology and aesthetics
India is shifting from an agrarian to an industrialized economy. Today, it ranks as the world’s fifth-largest economy, with a GDP of USD 2.9 trillion. Rapid industrialization and modernization are behind the migration from villages to large cities, driving urbanization forward. In fact, India is urbanizing fast, and 53% of people are expected to live in cities by 2050.
Japan went through a similar transition in the 1960s, which saw the large-scale construction of modern buildings as the foundation for a comfortable urban life. Toshiba has long been a leader in facilitating this urban growth by providing building solutions that are safe and reliable.
Shuichi Ito, Managing Director, Toshiba India Private Limited, explains, “With India urbanizing at a rising rate, customers are demanding advanced building solutions. Toshiba, one of the leading names in the premium elevator and air-conditioning business, provides high quality customizable products both in terms of technology and aesthetics. We utilize expertise developed over the years, and support sustainable urban development by providing safe, reliable, energy-efficient, and world-class building solutions in India.”
