 PROFILE
Although best known for its razors and blades (Sensor, Trac II, and its latest, the premium-priced Mach3), consumer products manufacturer The Gillette Company is also a leader in batteries (Duracell), dental care (Oral-B), toiletries (Right Guard), and electric shavers (Braun). Gillette derives about 60% of its revenues from outside the US and manufactures its products in 20 countries. Gillette's commitment to research and development has helped it become the world leader in most of its product categories; however, market share for batteries and oral care have become stagnant. It has sold its underperforming stationery products business (to Newell Rubbermaid) and its hair care lines (to Diamond Products).
