His appointment to lead the Zimbabwe CEOs Network is widely viewed as recognition of his entrepreneurial success and commitment to business excellence.
Accepting the new role, Togaraseyi said he was eager to use the platform to strengthen collaboration within the country's corporate sector and position Zimbabwean businesses for regional and global competitiveness.
