Dinner was served in one of Toyo’s private dining rooms where Vipp home solutions and kitchen appliances were on display, setting the stage for the evening’s dining experience. This allowed BPI Gold clients the ability to inquire about and pre-order a wide array of Vipp solutions in a more personalized manner, with Vipp Philippines General Manager Andrew Naval taking the guests through a discovery session of the Danish brand’s key offerings.
