The company was founded in March 1918 in Osaka by Konosuke Matsushita as Matsushita Denkikigu Seisakusho – a manufacturer of electrical equipment. In April 1927, the National brand was established, and from December 1935 the company operated as Matsushita Electric Industrial Co.
In April 2003, the Panasonic brand was standardised worldwide; in October 2008, the company adopted the name Panasonic Corporation, and since April 2022 it has operated within a holding structure. The dating of individual vintage examples is based on the markings placed on the objects.
