Samsung has been a player in the consumer electronics field for nearly seventy years, and has produced thousands of products which consumers use every day.

EARLY YEARS
Lee Byung-chull founded Samsung in 1938 in Seoul, South Korea. The company was originally founded as a small trading firm and had only forty employees. Samsung wasn’t interested in electronics during the early years – instead they focused on grocery products, especially noodles that were grown and distributed locally. The company continued to prosper until the Korean War, when Lee had to move the company. He started a sugar refinery in Busan, South Korea. After the war, he moved back to Seoul and founded a woollen mill that would become a major aspect of the company. Samsung continued to diversify its product line until they found themselves in the electronics industry in the early 1960s.
ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY
When Samsung first ventured into the electronics industry, they simply created subdivisions in the company to deal with the electronics division, but eventually the entire company was switched over to electronics research, design and manufacturing. Samsung focused heavily on the semiconductor industry and their first product was a black and white television set. By the 1980s, Samsung was focused on telecommunications devices such as telephones and fax machines. They also led the way in the research and development of the modern cell phone. To date, Samsung has produced over 800 million cell phones, many of which are available at low cost to the consumer. Samsung also branched out to include construction in their long list of business prospects. They built two Petronas Towers in Malaysia, and other towers throughout the Middle East and western Asia.
MODERN TIMES
By the 1990s, Samsung had even branched out to start working for military contractors. They began producing airplanes and the electronics devices that would be used in said aircraft. They focused heavily on building fuel efficient jet engines that were used in many types of jet aircraft worldwide. Samsung continues to focus heavily on the mobile market, the computer hardware market, and the emerging nanotechnology market. Today, they product thousands of products, ranging from office use, personal computer use, mobile phones, and even televisions and LCD displays. During the middle of the 2000 decade, Samsung overtook Sony as the world’s most popular consumer electronics brand.
