Eastman Kodak Company

Rochester, NY United States

 

Company Description

When Kodak made Brownies, folks said, "Cheese!" The Brownie camera inventor, Kodak has retouched its image and is exiting the camera business. Production of digital cameras, pocket video cameras, and digital picture frames has stopped. It has discontinued its Kodachrome color film, too. Kodak's future is in its brand licensing business, along with providing such products as home photo printers, commercial inkjet presses, and workflow software and packaging. The company's move shakes up its three segments: Consumer Digital Imaging Group (CDG); Film, Photofinishing, and Entertainment Group (FPE); and Graphic Communications Group (GCG), and follows a decision to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy relief in early 2012.
