Gillette is a historic American brand that revolutionized grooming with the invention of the disposable safety razor by King C. Gillette in 1901. Since its inception in Boston, Massachusetts, the brand has remained a dominant force in male personal care, eventually merging with the global consumer goods giant Procter & Gamble in 2005.

While the brand's 'World Shaving Headquarters' remains in Boston, manufacturing is a truly global operation. Gillette Antiperspirant products, such as the Arctic Ice Clear Gel, are widely produced in several strategic hubs. For the European and Middle Eastern markets (like the Turkish Rossmann store shown in the image), manufacturing often takes place in Poland, specifically at P&G's major personal care facility in Łódź. Other production sites include the United States (Andover, Massachusetts specifically for chemical products like gels), Brazil, and Mexico.

Today, Gillette remains under the ultimate ownership of Procter & Gamble, headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio. The brand continues to lead the market through constant innovation in dermatology and materials science, maintaining its position as a cornerstone of P&G's grooming division.
