Edgewell Personal Care

🚨 Reasons for Boycotting Edgewell Personal Care

Edgewell Personal Care Company is a publicly-traded multinational personal care company headquartered in Shelton, Connecticut, USA. The company owns brands including Schick, Wilkinson Sword, Personna, Playtex, Banana Boat, Hawaiian Tropic, Wet Ones, Skintimate, Edge, Bulldog, Jack Black, and Cremo. Edgewell maintains a corporate presence in israel through a wholly-owned subsidiary and by refusing to sever ties with israel, it contributes to the normalization of genocide.

1. 100% Edgewell Subsidiary in israel — Personna International israel Ltd.: In Edgewell's SEC filings, Personna International israel Ltd. is registered in israel with 100% control owned by Edgewell. The company is based in Nazareth Illit, israel.

2. Institutional Shareholders: BlackRock and Vanguard: According to Yahoo Finance data, BlackRock, Inc. is the largest institutional shareholder in Edgewell Personal Care with 15.98%. Vanguard Portfolio Management LLC is also a significant shareholder with 6.35%. Both funds are identified in a UN report (OHCHR) as being among the largest investors in companies pivotal to israel's weapons arsenal. This means that profits generated by Edgewell partly flow to these funds, indirectly contributing to israel's weapons industry.Yahoo Finance: BlackRock 15.98%; Vanguard 6.35% — Edgewell Personal Care (EPC) Major HoldersUN OHCHR: Report of the Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese (2025)
3. Double Standards and Silence: Edgewell Personal Care commits to "respecting human rights" and "zero tolerance for modern slavery and human trafficking" in its supply chain. However, the company retains its 100% subsidiary in israel (Personna International israel Ltd.) and has issued no statement condemning the genocide in Gaza or the illegal settlement enterprise in the West Bank. This contradiction between human rights commitments and actual corporate cooperation with israel exposes the company's double standards.Edgewell: Human Rights and Supplier Code of Conduct
