Nokia was the world's largest vendor of mobile phones from 1998 to 2012. However, over the past five years it has suffered a declining market share as a result of the growing use of smartphones from other vendors, principally the Apple iPhone and devices running on Google 's Android operating system . As a result, its share price has fallen from a high of US$40 in late 2007 to under US$2 in mid-2012.

    Nokia Corporation was founded in 1967 as a technology corporation that worked hard in the industry to introduce cellular phones in the market, very specifically in the 1970’s when cellular phones were invented and gotten so much attention from consumers.

    Between 1995 and 1999, sales for Nokia tripled while profits nearly did the same. In 1998 they sold over 40 million phones, making Nokia the number one mobile phone company in the world. Nokia was successful due to its ability to have large scale production, within its own factories, allowing them to achieve economies of scale and high profit margins. However, in 2000, the market matured and the other major players in the industry (Motorola, Sony Ericsson, Siemens AG, Samsung) have been gaining market share ever since. Due to increased pressures from consumers for each manufacturer to offer the latest in technology and features, an industry trend of outsourcing to low cost manufacturer’s and Nokia’s reluctance to embrace a ‘Clamshell’ style phone, Nokia has gone from 35% market share in 2001 to just 28.9% in 2004 (Appendix 1).…
