Brand history

Samsung is a South Korean company specializing in the production of consumer electronics, products for the heavy and defense industries, and construction.It includes many subsidiaries that deal with insurance, advertising and music industry activities. All manufactured products make up one fifth of the export of this state. The date of formation of the company, which was based in Daegu, is 1938. From the very beginning, the scale of the company was small. The very first products sold by the company were groceries, including rice and noodles, as well as products of its own production.

Samsung's first headquarters

Despite the development in the capital of South Korea, by the end of the 1940s, due to the outbreak of the Korean War, the company had to stop its activities. However, at the end of the war, textile production was expanded with the further construction of the largest wool factory in the country.

As an independent trademark, Samsung was officially registered in 1948. The Korean translation of the name is "three stars".

In addition to rapidly expanding the insurance industry and investing in securities and retail, Samsung has been actively restoring the state's activities by promoting industrialization.

The company began its development in the electronics industry in the 1960s, during which time a number of electronics development divisions were created. The city for the placement of the corporation's production resources was Suwon, where the country's best manufacturers began to produce black-and-white televisions. In the 1980s, telecommunications products began to be created, such as the landline telephone and, subsequently, popular mobile phone models, as well as fax machines. At the same time, there was an expansion of divisions in a number of European countries and the United States.The end of the decade was the period of dividing the corporation's activities into four sectors - electronics, high-tech production, mechanical engineering and construction. It should also be noted that the activities of the technical department include the development and creation of aircraft engines and gas turbines, as well as components for aircraft engines of international airlines.

In the early 1990s, there was a reorganization of production again. Since that time, the leading industries have become electronic, engineering and chemical. Ten subsidiaries were sold off and most of the staff were made redundant. Investing in the development and production of liquid crystal panels made Samsung the world's top manufacturer of these products by the mid-2000s.

Currently, the world-famous corporation specializes mostly in mobile technologies, electronics and the sale of biopharmaceuticals in conjunction with Biogen.
