Thomson Smart Fire TV

Thomson is a brand with a storied history in the electronics industry, originally rooted in France. Over the decades, the brand has undergone significant structural changes. While the Thomson name was globally synonymous with French engineering and innovation throughout the 20th century, the brand's consumer electronics division was eventually licensed out as part of a strategic shift by the original French group.

Today, the brand is owned by Technicolor Creative Studios, though it is managed through various licensing agreements. Notably, in the European market, the brand name for televisions is licensed to companies like StreamView or manufactured by large-scale global producers such as TCL or other OEMs. Most manufacturing now takes place in specialized electronics hubs in China and Eastern Europe to leverage global supply chains while maintaining the brand's European identity and market presence.
