Gillette Venus Smooth razor

Gillette Venus is the female-focused line of the iconic Gillette shaving brand, which was founded in the United States by King C. Gillette in 1901. The Venus sub-brand was specifically launched in 2001 to cater to women's shaving needs.

Today, the brand is owned by Procter & Gamble (P&G), an American multinational consumer goods corporation that acquired Gillette in 2005. Manufacturing for Venus products occurs globally, with major production facilities in Mexico, Poland, and Brazil, depending on the specific product line and target market.
