About Procter & Gamble Company (The)
About Procter & Gamble Company (The)
Walmart Inc. and its affiliates accounted for approximately 16% of Procter & Gamble's total sales in fiscal 2025, while the company's top ten customers together made up 43% of net sales. Operations outside the United States generated more than 50% of P&G's annual net sales, and the company employed approximately 109,000 people as of June 30, 2025, with 49% in manufacturing roles and 28% based in the United States.
P&G sells branded, daily-use consumer products through mass merchandisers, e-commerce and social-commerce channels, grocery stores, membership clubs, drug and department stores, distributors, wholesalers, specialty beauty retailers and direct-to-consumer channels, with products sold in about 180 countries and operations in roughly 70. The company's cost base is exposed to petroleum-derived resins, pulp-based packaging materials, labor, tariffs, transportation and energy costs, and almost all of its raw and packaging materials are purchased from third parties, some of which are single-source suppliers, alongside certain sole-manufacturing-plant arrangements the 10-K flags directly. P&G competes against a wide range of global and local branded competitors as well as retailers' private-label brands, differentiating through what it calls superiority across product performance, packaging, brand communication, retail execution and value.
Show full overview
P&G's supply chain carries a concentration risk distinct from its customer base: the 10-K discloses that the company depends on certain sole supplier or sole manufacturing plant arrangements to meet customer needs and cost targets, and that disruption to any of these -- from a labor dispute, a lost or impaired key manufacturing site, or an inability to procure sufficient raw materials -- has interrupted product supply in the past and could do so again. That single-source exposure compounds a retailer-concentration risk on the demand side, where the 10-K separately warns that continued consolidation among P&G's retail customers could create cost and margin pressure, meaning P&G faces bottlenecks on both ends of its value chain rather than just one.
