Discover where a brand or product originates
Persil is a brand with a complex history involving two of the world's largest consumer goods companies. In the French market, Persil is owned and distributed by Unilever. The brand originally launched in 1907 by Henkel in Germany, and the name was derived from its two main ingredients: perborate and silicate.
Today, the rights to the Persil brand are split geographically. Unilever owns the brand in France, the UK, and several other global territories, while Henkel retains ownership in Germany, most of Europe, and the Middle East. The specific 'Douceur d'Amande' (Almond Softness) variant with Marseille soap is a product line specifically tailored for the French market, often manufactured in European facilities dedicated to Unilever’s home care division to meet local demand.
