Nivea is one of the world's most iconic skin care brands, originally founded in Germany in 1911 by Oscar Troplowitz, who acquired the brand from Paul Carl Beiersdorf. The brand became famous for its Nivea Creme, the first stable oil-and-water-based skin cream.
Today, Nivea is owned by Beiersdorf AG, a major German multinational firm. While the brand remains headquartered in Hamburg, Germany, its products like the Protect & Care deodorant are manufactured in numerous state-of-the-art facilities across Europe, Asia, and the Americas to meet global demand. The brand has evolved to include specific lines like 'Nivea Men', catering to male grooming needs worldwide under the strategic direction of its German parent company.
