Johnson & Johnson Baby Powder

Johnson & Johnson is an iconic American brand that has been a household name for over a century. Founded in 1886 by brothers Robert Wood Johnson, James Wood Johnson, and Edward Mead Johnson, the company initially focused on surgical dressings before expanding into consumer staples like baby powder and adhesive bandages.

Today, the brand operates as part of Kenvue Inc., a dedicated consumer health company that was spun off from the original Johnson & Johnson medical corporation. While the brand originated in New Brunswick, New Jersey, its products are now manufactured globally in various facilities across North America, Europe, and Asia to meet international demand.

The ownership structure reflects a significant shift in corporate history; while the name 'Johnson & Johnson' remains on many labels, the consumer health division is now an independent entity headquartered in the United States. This allows the brand to maintain its heritage while focusing exclusively on consumer personal care and hygiene products.
