History
Originally founded in Chicago by Ross Siragusa as Admiral Corporation’s Asian branch, Admiral Overseas Corporation was set up in Taiwan in 1967 as the pioneer manufacturer of color televisions aimed at export markets. The firm adopted the name AOC International in 1978 and began direct sales under the AOC brand from 1979 onward. From 1988 through 1997, AOC broadened its presence by establishing sales offices across the United States, China, Europe, and Brazil. The company further expanded into India and Mexico during 2005 and 2006 respectively. By September 2020, AOC’s product range—including CRT and LCD monitors, LCD televisions, all-in-one PCs, and Android tablets—was accessible in more than 40 countries.
In 2022, the AGON gaming monitor lineup by AOC achieved a dominant position with a 29% share of the worldwide gaming monitor sector.
