Supraphon doesn’t produce gramophone anymore and today is a very important Czech record label, the only music publisher from the former Eastern Bloc that has maintained its leading position in the domestic market and has successfully competed in an increasingly competitive international environment
The name Supraphon (originally used for an electric record player) was first registered as a trademark in 1932. In the post-war period, it was the label for domestic albums produced for export, playing an important role in contributing to the spread of Czech classical music recordings in the 1930s and 1940s.
In the following years, Supraphon became an export company (1949), a manufacturing company (Supraphon Record Manufacturing, 1961), an independent publishing house (Supraphon np, 1969).
It is currently a joint stock company and it has been declared a national cultural monument.
