JVC

JVC, short for Japan Victor Company, was established in 1927 as a subsidiary of the American Victor Talking Machine Company. It is renowned for pioneering Japan's first television and developing the Video Home System (VHS) video recorder. In 1953, JVC became majority-owned by Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. (now Panasonic Corporation). In 2008, JVC merged with Kenwood Corporation to form JVCKENWOOD Corporation, a leading Japanese multinational electronics company. Today, JVC continues to offer a wide range of audio and video products, including high-definition displays, home theater projectors, digital video camcorders, and car audio systems. The brand operates globally, with manufacturing facilities in multiple countries, and is recognized for its innovative contributions to consumer electronics.
