Leading razor vendors and brands
Proctor & Gamble was the leading vendor of razors in the United States in 2016, generating about 286.3 million U.S. dollars in sales in that year, while private label vendors came in third in terms of razor sales. However, Americans tend to prefer private label razors to name brand razors. In 2018, private label brands sold nearly 40 million U.S. dollars of razors, about eight million dollars more than the top name brand, Gillette Fusion5. The popularity of Gillette Fusion5 and other name brand razors is on the rise compared to private label razors. Between 2017 and 2018, Gillette Fision5 experienced highest growth in sales, while private label razors sales declined by about percent in that time period.
