Canadian Corporate Information
After only a decade of growth since first entering the Canadian market
in 1987, Samsung Canada, headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, has emerged
as the market leader. We are growing in Canada by about 20% per year and
continue to build a strong presence in every market we enter. Operating
as part of Samsung's Americas group, our Canadian operations gain considerable
competitive advantage from Samsung's local Americas R&D, manufacturing,
and technical support. Samsung Electronics in Canada focuses on consumer
electronics and information systems products. Consumer electronics began
in Canada in 1987, followed by IS in 1992. The information sales division
has grown 61% since 1992. Samsung has introduced a wide range of IS products
into the Canadian market, which include hard disk drives, CD-ROM drives,
printers, fax machines and monitors enforcing its leading market position
and fast year-over-year growth with a strong local presence and reseller
network to serve Canadian consumers from coast to coast. Samsung is building
a strong presence in Canada as it has all over the world.
PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
How many times have you been watching a profile on a rich business tycoon
on a business trip or perhaps a biography on a wealthy music star traveling
by plane or on a tour bus and you see them entertaining themselves with
a portable DVD player? I know my first impression was that those portable
units must be really expensive and you must have to be rich to afford
one. Maybe a couple years ago this may have been so, but not anymore.
Reading this review will expose you to a truly unique product packed full
of great features for the home, the office and mainly on the road.
