JVC (Victor Company of Japan) is a legendary Japanese brand with a deep history in consumer electronics established in 1927. Historically known for inventing the VHS format, the brand has been a staple in home audio and video equipment. Today, the manufacture of JVC receivers and audio products occurs in various high-tech facilities across Asia, primarily in Malaysia, Indonesia, and China.
In 2008, JVC merged with Kenwood to form JVCKENWOOD Corporation. As of 2026, the brand remains under the ultimate ownership of JVCKENWOOD, headquartered in Yokohama, Japan. While JVCKENWOOD manages the core brand, certain product categories or regional rights are occasionally licensed to third parties like Vestel for televisions in Europe, but the primary home audio technology remains rooted in Japanese engineering.
