Fujifilm Holdings Corporation or Fujifilm (富士フイルム株式会社, Fujifirumu Kabushiki Kaisha^?) is a Japanese company known for its photographic film and cameras. Fujifilm is the world’s largest photographic and imaging company ^[2]. Fuji operates 223 subsidiary companies for research, manufacture and distribution of products with manufacturing facilities in Asia, Europe and North America. They also produce computer media storage consumables, such as CD-Rs and recordable DVDs.

Fuji's camera film comes in distinctive green boxes and is sometimes rebranded as own-label film, such as President's Choice. Fuji products are distinct in their uniform containers. Fuji photographic films are considered along with, and often compete against, those produced by Kodak. Their products are sold in over 200 countries worldwide. Since 1982, Fuji is one of the main sponsors of the FIFA World Cup.

The company was the driving force behind the creation of Japan's first electronic computer, called FUJIC, completed in 1956.
