Funai Electric Co. Ltd. is a Japanese consumer electronics company headquartered in Daitō, Osaka, Japan. It owns the United States subsidiary Funai Corporation, Inc. to market and maintain Funai-licensed brands, such as Sylvania, Emerson Radio, Magnavox, Philips, and Symphonic.

Funai was founded by Tetsuro Funai, the son of a sewing machine manufacturer. During the 1950s before the company was formed, Funai produced sewing machines and was one of the first Japanese makers to enter the United States retail market. Then, the introduction of the transistor technology had begun to change the face of the electronics market. The Funai company was formed, Tetsuro Funai became CEO for 47 years and a self-made billionaire, and the first actual products produced were the transistor radios.

In 1980, Funai launched a sales and manufacturing subsidiary in Germany. Funai also developed the Compact Video Cassette (CVC) format at the same year, a joint development with Technicolor, trying to compete with VHS and Beta. Sales were poor and not well-received, and the CVC format was abandoned a few years later.
