: ''For the New York Mets baseball player, see Kazuo Matsui .'' : ''For the Japanese football player, see Daisuke Matsui .'' Matsui is the Brand Name of a line of electrical items such as Television s, VCR s, and Microwave Oven s sold in the UK , introduced in the 1980s . It is an own-brand of the Dixons retailer, and not an independent manufacturer. Contrary to popular belief, the company is based in the UK. The Japanese -sounding name was chosen as a device for fooling customers into believing the goods were made in Japan, since common perception at the time was that electronics from the Far East were of higher quality than European counterparts. During the 1980s, many Matsui televisions were Ferguson sets made in the UK. Since both Dixons and Currys are owned by the same DSG International Plc group, some Matsui products are identical to Currys Saisho branded items. |
