In a significant corporate development, Procter & Gamble (P&G) has announced its decision to shut down business operations in Pakistan as part of a broader global restructuring strategy.
The move has also prompted Gillette Pakistan, a subsidiary of P&G, to consider delisting from the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX). According to an official notice sent to the PSX, the decision aligns with P&G’s plan to optimize its global portfolio, streamline supply chains, and restructure its organization to drive long-term growth and value creation.
The Board of Directors of Gillette Pakistan will convene on October 2, 2025, to discuss the implications of P&G’s exit and evaluate potential next steps.
This strategic shift marks the end of P&G’s decades-long presence in Pakistan, where it introduced and marketed several well-known consumer brands. Analysts suggest that while the exit reflects global restructuring priorities, it may also impact the local FMCG landscape and consumer choices.
