For Europe, Hitachi TV sets are produced by Turkish concern Vestel. This is one of the largest outsourcing manufacturers and suppliers to Europe with over 50 years’ worth of expertise in electronics production.
TV sets for the US and Canada markets are manufactured by Hisense Chinese concern. In some countries, you can’t buy Hitachi TV.
The Hitachi brand for TVs is not as prestigious and important to many buyers, which could be why they would rather purchase another brand.
