QVC

QVC is a West Chester, Pennsylvania based multinational corporation, specialising in televised home shopping. Founded in 1986 by Joseph Segel, QVC broadcasts in four major countries to 141 million consumers. The name is an initialism—standing for "Quality, Value, Convenience"—ostensibly, the three pillars of Segel's vision for the company.

Competitors

With the continued growth and popularity of home-shopping television, more and more companies are emerging to challenge QVC's position. In the United States, the Home Shopping Network is QVC's primary competitor, while QVC UK competes with several other channels, such as bid tv (and its sister channel price-drop tv), Ideal World, Screenshop, and others.
