The Procter & Gamble Company

Founded in Cincinnati in 1837 by William Procter and James Gamble, P&G has developed from a soap and candle maker into one of the world's largest branded consumer-goods companies. Its products are sold in more than 180 countries, and its headquarters remains in Cincinnati, Ohio.

P&G operates across baby, beauty, grooming, health care, fabric care, home care, family care, and personal care. Its portfolio includes Pampers, Gillette, Ariel, Head & Shoulders, Olay, Tide, Crest, Oral-B, Always, and Febreze.

The company is especially strong at brand management, consumer research, product development, and global supply-chain execution. In fiscal 2025, it reported $84.3 billion in net sales. Its sustainability agenda includes a 2040 net-zero ambition, a 2030 goal for all consumer packaging to be recyclable or reusable, and a target of purchasing 100% renewable electricity globally.
