Kyoto turns 50 since its foundation in 1974, when Norberto Vaccaro, in a small space of the family home, began to assemble radios at the time when the radio had as much penetration as a means that they could not supply the demand. Everything they produced was sold, and that was the basis to take the next step: the manufacture of Bafles in recent 70 and the first 80s, when with the increase in the arrival of imported radios we had to diversify and expand the business.

Esteban Vaccaro, vice president of the company, said that Kyoto's yearning was and continues to sustain local production, although within the conditions imposed by the market and the world.“There are technologies that are not developed in Argentina and we understood that developing them was going to have a very high cost for the volume of the Argentine market,” he said. “It was going to take us a lot of time and that cost was going to put us out of business,” he added, highlighting the need to maintain competitiveness by leaning towards the import of products in line with the latest global technology.

The line they currently offer was designed focusing on the greatest possible balance between quality and price. “We focus on relatively inexpensive models but with a very low level of failures, and even in the event that there is a problem, we have an after-sales and technical service that works with the mentality that has always characterized us: solving any problem that the customer may have,” Vaccaro emphasized, adding that When a product has a failure, it is first derived to the official technical service of the area, if it cannot be solved there, it is brought to the workshop from any point in the country where it is, repairs it and returns it to the user.

Looking to the future, they are planning to resume the line expansion project, which they had to postpone due to the pandemic. “The idea was there before and we are going to do the expansion with the same work scheme: to offer technologically quality products, with very good design but with a price appropriate to the current purchasing power,” Vaccaro concluded. "This year we have secured the supply of merchandise. We were able to close a financing agreement with our supplier for the purchase of finished products and raw materials and inputs in the context of imports and payments in which the Argentine market operates today. We continue working with the same spirit as always, being an SME that sells products and also provides services."
