(MENAFN) Panasonic, the Japanese firm, announced it is planning to double its business in the Middle East and Africa region, to reach over USD1 billion by 2018, Gulf Business reported.

The company, which has witnessed a drop in its market share over the last few years because of growing competition, is planning to change its corporate strategy by focusing on quality rather than quantity in the consumer goods segment of their business, as well as focusing on three main products: ACs, refrigerators and washing machines.
