Toto Ltd was a global manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom equipment, fixtures, and other related products. Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, with a global presence, the company was a leader in product innovation in the kitchen, bathroom and plumbing categories. One such example was a product called 'Washlet,' an electronic toilet seat with multiple functions: heating, showering, drying, and deodorizing. The case asks the students to conduct research on their own to estimate a potential market size of the Washlet product line in both Egypt and the United States. The students are also required to present the findings to the class.
