  • On July 15, 1915, P&G begins operations in Canada when manufacturing starts in a new Hamilton, Ontario plant producing glycerine.
  • Despite the rising unemployment rate during the Great Depression, not one of the plant’s 200 employees is laid off. Instead, P&G Canada sees an opportunity to introduce a five-day work week, becoming the first Canadian company to do so.
  • In 1948, P&G Canada introduces Tide, the first heavy-duty synthetic detergent. Hailed as a “washday miracle,” P&G Canada nearly triples sales between 1945 and 1950.
  • Canada’s birth rate balloons in the ’50s and ’60s. P&G prepares for consumption growth and expands their footprint in Canada.
  • The 1970s and ’80s mark a time of massive growth for P&G Canada. This growth is due to big brand launches in Canada, like Pampers in 1972 and Always in 1984.
  • The rapidly growing business requires huge capital investments. A new plant opens in Brockville to produce Tide and Bounce, and another in Belleville to produce Pampers and later Always.
  • By the end of the 2000s, P&G grows existing brands and launches Bounty, Charmin, Swiffer and Febreze. Old Spice was acquired and a merger with Gillette occurs by 2005.
  • The 2000s also sees P&G Canada introduce same-sex benefits, institute its first employee survey and donate more than $1 million to the United Way, becoming the first packaged goods company in Canada to achieve this level of giving.
  • In 2014, the Toronto head office gets converted to an innovative open-concept office that allows employees to choose from a variety of work settings based on their current task, incorporating new technologies and creating an environment for P&G Canada’s future.
