Three Greatest Moments In Toto Asia History

The Band Toto Asia

Origins

The early history of Toto that began in 1917, mirrored Japan's rapid economic expansion. In the first half of its existence, the company manufactured products to meet the demand for new, modern urban housing. To accomplish this, it employed the first tunnel kiln in the country that produced ceramics in a continuous flow. It also pioneered the use of automation to control production, allowing for more efficiency and consistency.

In the latter half of the 1980s, the company began expanding overseas to profit from sales and new markets. The company created the Cera Trading Company to import and sell other products from other manufacturers in order to expand its line of sanitary earthenwares and plumbing fittings. This strategy increased sales and expanded the firm’s global market share.

In the late 1990s, Toto had shifted its emphasis on research and development for household appliances that use water. It also improved its distribution system to better meet the needs of customers and increase profits.

Boz Scaggs' album Silk Degrees featured keyboardist David Paich and guitarists Mike Porcaro & Steve Lukather and drummer Jeff Porcaro & Steve Lukather. They also performed on albums by Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, and Sonny and Cher.
