"Divisions" and "product lines" were the terms used at the beginning of mass production. One of the innovations of Alfred P. Sloan at General Motors was the idea of a division-based corporation, or the M-form company, contrasting with the earlier U-form (unitary) business. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-divisional_form> Outside the US you'll find Chaebol (Korea) and Keiretsu / Zaibatsu (Japan) models. |
