The National Cash Register Company (NCR) is an American company specializing in the production of computers for the retail, banking, financial, travel and medical industries. The company was founded by businessman Jacob Eckert in the USA in 1884, the main products of the early years were cash registers (hence the name of the company - English National Cash Register).
In the period from 1888 to 1915, cash registers were introduced in almost all stores in America and later in Europe. From the moment they were invented until the outbreak of the war, 1.5 million units were sold. The millionth cash register was sold to the National Manufactoring Company in 1911, and just nine years later the company sold its second millionth cash register.
