Kodak film products are (confusingly) handled by Kodak-Alaris, which is a separate company that spun out of Eastman Kodak around 2012-ish and shares the Kodak brand with Eastman Kodak. Despite the similar names they are entirely separate companies, AFAIK.
My team did an integration with Kodak-Alaris a few years back and we toured their main office in Rochester.

- pavon 1y agoThe way Wikipedia describes it, Eastman Kodak is still the one manufacturing the film, and Kodak Alaris is just selling it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodak#Still_film https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kodak#Still_film
