Procter & Gamble Philippines, Inc., also known as P&G Philippines, is the Philippine subsidiary of American multinational consumer goods company Procter & Gamble.[1] It is a manufacturer of laundry detergents and soaps, shampoos and hair conditioners, toothpastes, deodorants, skin care products, household cleaners, toilet soaps and consumer healthcare products. Since 2016, the company is based in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.

Procter & Gamble Philippines serves as part of The Procter & Gamble Company to produce, manufacture and supervise P&G brands (like Safeguard, Head & Shoulders, Tide, Downy, Ariel, among others) in the Philippine market.[2][3] To maintain the needs of mass production of most of the products, the company also imports P&G products from neighboring countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and South Korea.

History

Primary logo still used today on P&G branded products.

In 1935, P&G expanded its international presence with the acquisition of Philippine Manufacturing Company (PMC), making P&G Philippines, the company's first operational unit in the Far East and the second-oldest P&G subsidiary outside North America.[3][4]

As part of expansion in 1964, Procter & Gamble merged with its Philippine counterpart to form the new company, Procter & Gamble PMC and adopted the Moon and Stars logo until 1989.[3]

In 1989, Procter & Gamble PMC was renamed as Procter & Gamble Philippines. Originally displayed as its original plant in Tondo, Manila, and continues to be displayed in Cabuyao, Laguna.[3]
