Toshiba Unveils New Solutions Empowering Retail at LEAD 2018

Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions and Toshiba America Business Solutions are teaming up to empower retailers and business partners during LEAD (Learn, Engage, Act and Deliver) 2018 Sept. 5 and 6 at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.  

LEAD 2018’s theme of Empowering the Art of Business, celebrates the notion that each company is a unique collection of people, ideas, language, culture and brand.  This concept epitomizes Toshiba’s collective belief that every client is unique.  Their work is their art, their employees the artist.

Over 1,600 LEAD 2018 attendees – comprised of customers, resellers, technology partners and industry media and analysts – across retail and business-to-business industries will receive a first glance at Toshiba’s current and future product and service offerings.

The event’s 35 information-jammed educational sessions are tailored to help organizations increase profits while assisting them to operate more efficiently, effectively and affordably.  Attendees are also welcome to listen to LEAD 2018 keynote speaker and New York Times bestselling author, Shawn Achor, who will discuss the connection between happiness and success.  Other noted speakers include Kasey Lobaugh, chief innovation officer, retail and distribution, Deloitte Consulting and Greg Buzek, founder and president of IHL Group. 

Today, Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions introduces new retail solutions designed to empower the art of retail:

• Toshiba expands its prominent point of sale (POS) printer family with the unveiling of its Toshiba TC™ Single Station printer, which delivers the fastest receipt printing in the industry along with the reliability and manageability retailers have come to expect from the global market share leader in installed retail point of sale technology. Featuring print speeds of up to 406 millimeters per second, Toshiba’s receipt printers allow retailers to operate more efficiently while improving the customer experience. 
• The Toshiba T10 all-in-one POS system is part of Toshiba’s new Basics line; nicely complementing the company’s premium TCx portfolio. The T10 is designed to support the functionality, style and versatility that today's retail and hospitality environments demand. Ultimately, delivering the perfect mix of value, performance and style for budget-conscious businesses.

Toshiba additionally spotlights its recently-introduced System 7 self-service platform and TCx 800 all-in-one POS platform – both generally available around the world later this month.  Toshiba’s System 7 personalizes store front-ends to deliver a fast and frictionless self checkout experience.  The TCx 800 enables exceptional performance, flexibility and reliability for retailers.  Prominent retail and grocery stores throughout the world are ready to deploy these systems.    

Toshiba continues to invest in the TCx Elevate digital commerce platform empowering retailers to elevate the shopping experience. The latest release strengthens the core platform, offering enhancements in manageability, security, data integrity and process orchestration.  Furthermore, Toshiba is announcing new platform applications, including: a food service application for self-ordering, mobile operations manager dashboard and mobile POS. 

“Our team is excited to host an event where key decisionmakers and industry leaders converge to collaborate, plan and prepare our resellers, customers and business partners for success,” said Bill Melo, Chief Marketing Executive of Toshiba America Business Solutions and Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions.  “Beyond scheduling a vast array of informative sessions hosted by internal and external subject matter experts on trending topics within office printing, document workflow, digital signage and retail commerce technology, our resellers and customers are encouraged to personally review our latest product innovations.”

Five of Toshiba's previous six LEAD events have been recognized with Stevie Awards, the world’s top honors for customer service, contact center, business development and sales professionals.
