About CO. by Colgate
Founded : 1806
Colgate-Palmolive is a global consumer products company that has been in business for over 200 years. Founded in 1806 by William Colgate, the company began as a small soap and candle business in New York City. In the early years, Colgate focused on producing high-quality soaps and candles for the local market.
In the late 1800s, Colgate began to expand its product line to include toothpaste, which was an instant success. The company quickly became the leading toothpaste brand in the United States and began to expand its international presence.
In 1928, Colgate merged with Palmolive-Peet Company, a leading manufacturer of soaps and detergents. This merger allowed Colgate to expand its product line to include a wide range of personal care products, including shampoos, deodorants, and cosmetics.
Today, Colgate-Palmolive is a global leader in the consumer products industry, with products sold in over 200 countries and territories. The company continues to focus on providing quality products and innovative solutions to meet the needs of its customers.
