Eastman Kodak Company is the world leader in helping people take, share, enhance, preserve, print and enjoy pictures — for memories, for information, for entertainment.

Founded by George Eastman in 1880, the company is a major participant in "infoimaging," a $385 billion industry composed of devices (digital cameras and PDAs), infrastructure (online networks and delivery systems for images) and services and media (software, film and paper enabling people to access, analyze and print images). Kodak harnesses its technology, market reach and a host of industry partnerships to provide innovative products and services for customers who need the information-rich content that images contain.

The company is organized into four major businesses: Photography — providing consumers, professionals and cinematographers with digital and traditional products and services; Health — supplying the healthcare industry with traditional and digital image capture and output products and services; Commercial Imaging — offering image capture, output and storage products and services to businesses and government; Displays — a new business group formed in 2002 to guide the OLED image display business, and develop new opportunities in the display marketplace.

In 2002, worldwide sales totaled $12.8 billion, with more than half coming from outside the U.S. Kodak employs approximately 70,000 people, with 39,000 in the U.S. With major manufacturing plants in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Australia and China, Kodak markets a wide range of imaging products in nearly every country in the world.
