PROFILE |
 |
Consumers recognize the Polaroid name in an instant. The company makes instant film and cameras (about 75% of sales), digital cameras and peripherals, conventional film, imaging equipment, and security ID-card systems. Polaroid's I-Zone instant camera (which produces thumbnail-size images) is the world's top-selling camera; its success was key in returning the company to profitability in 1999 (a condition not seen since 1994). Restructuring to focus on its instant and digital photography products, Polaroid is selling most of its noncore operations (graphics, sunglasses). The company has also begun cutting jobs to help reduce its sizable debt. About 35% of Polaroid's sales come from outside the Americas.
