Gillette is a razor brand, owned by Procter & Gamble. It advertises with the slogan “The Best a Man Can Get”. Gillette has released a huge range of razors over the years, describing each one as the best yet. Gillette razor blades have even been attributed to a specific sound achieved by The Kinks in some of their earlier music. In 2005, Procter and Gamble acquired Gillette for $50 million (around £37.5 million).
It’s possible to invest in Gillette, but as it’s owned by Procter and Gamble (P&G), you’d need to buy Procter and Gamble shares.
This means that if you choose to invest in Gillette by buying shares in P&G, then you’ll be investing in its other brands as well. You should research the main ones to get a good picture of the company as a whole.
