Most people will talk about Gillette if asked which brand they shave with. While a portion of the sharp parts of their razors might be produced in America, the handles, cartridges, and the majority of the razors’ productions take place across the world, in Poland, Mexico, Brazil, and China. A Boston-based factory is a Gillette museum of sorts, having opened in the early 1900s. If you do a bit of reading up on the brand, Gillette’s supply was at one point struggling to meet its demand, meaning that it had to broaden its production horizons. As with many companies in need of a helping hand, it turned to China, specifically Shanghai, where a plant was built. The company has since met its target of one billion razors, annually.
