Barbasol razors

Barbasol is a classic American grooming brand with a heritage dating back to 1919. While most famous for its shaving cream, the brand expanded its product line to include high-quality disposable razors and shaving accessories. The brand was originally created by Professor Frank Shields in Indianapolis, Indiana, who sought to develop a shaving cream that did not require a brush.

Today, Barbasol is owned by Perio, Inc., a company based in Dublin, Ohio. While the iconic shaving cream is primarily manufactured in the United States, Barbasol razors are often produced through manufacturing partnerships in various countries to remain competitive in the global market. The brand continues to be a staple in the American household, maintaining its position as a leading value brand in the grooming industry.

Ownership has remained stable under Perio, Inc. since they acquired the brand from Pfizer in 2001. The company focuses on maintaining the brand's legacy of providing affordable and effective shaving solutions for men. Their distribution network spans across North America and several international markets through various retail subsidiaries and distribution partners.
