Sony of Canada Ltd. evolved from General Distributors (Gendis). In collaboration with the founders of Sony Corporation, Akio Morita and Masaru Ibuka, Manitoba businessman Albert Cohen and his four brothers negotiated early distribution of Sony's first transistor radio in 1955. As early pioneers of electronics distribution, the Cohens also negotiated for the T. Eaton Company to be the first company to sell Sony consumer products outside of Japan. Sony of Canada also pioneered and powered the growth of Broadcast media. Using the most powerful technology of its time, Sony's Betacam technology transformed the world of electronic news gathering. Sony's digital routing system was the heart of the CBC Toronto Broadcasting Centre, and Sony's Digital Betacam SX was used as the primary tool to record and broadcast the 1996 Olympics across Canada.
