Nokia's history starts in 1865 when mining engineer Fredrik Idestam established
a groundwood pulp million the banks of the Tammerkoski rapids in the town of Tampere,
in southwestern Finland, and started manufacturing paper.In 1868, Idestam built a second
mill near the town of Nokia, fifteen kilometers (nine miles) west of Tampere by the
Nokianvirta river, which had better resources for hydropower production. In 1871,
Idestam, with the help of his close friend statesman Leo Mechelin, renamed and
transformed his firm into a share company, thereby founding the Nokia Company, the
name it is still known by today.
The name of the town, Nokia, originated from the river which flowed through
the town. The river itself, Nokianvirta, was named after the archaic Finnish word
originally meaning a small, dark-furred animal that lived on the banks of the Nokianvirta
river. In modern Finnish, noki means soot and nokia is its inflected plural, although this
form of the word is rarely if ever used. The old word, nois (pl. nokia) or nokinäätä ("soot
marten"), meant sable. After sable was hunted to extinction in Finland, the word was
applied to any dark-furred animal of the genus Martes, such as the pine marten, which are
found in the area to this day.

Marketing principles of NOKIA
There are many priorities within a business, but in a marketing orientated company like Nokia, many of the following principles will be high on the agenda: 1. Customer satisfaction: Market research must be used to find out whether customers' expectations are being met by current products or services.
2. Customer perception: this is based on the images consumers have of the organization and its products, this can be based on; value for money, product quality, fashion and product reliability.
3. Customer needs and expectations: This is anticipating future trends and forecasting for future sales. This is vital to any organization if they wish to keep their entire current market share and develop more.
4. Generating income or profit: This principle clearly states that the need of the organization is to be profitable enough to generate income for growth and to satisfy stakeholders in the business. Although satisfying the customer is a big part of a companies plans they also need to take into account their own needs, such as:
5. Making satisfactory progress: Organizations need to make sure that their product is developing along with the market, if a product is developing well, then income should increase, if not then the marketing strategy should be revised.
6. Be aware of the environment: An organization should always know what is happening within their designated market, if it is changing, saturation, technological advances, slowing down or rapidly growing, being up to date on this is essential for companies to survive.
