Gillette blades marketing

[giftofbab]

Does anyone have a list or know of the countries where the different Gillette blades are marketed towards/sold?

From what I’ve read or seen…

King C. Gillette - Worldwide?
Nacet - Middle East
Astra - Turkey?
Minora - South Africa?
7 o’clock Black - India
Gillette Wilkinson Sword - India

My curiosity came when I saw Silver Blues.

It's hard to tell just by the writing on the box, often it seems to have contact/countries listed even thought the blade isn't market there (eg. Iridium Super box has an Australian contact, or used to).

Gillette Goal Super Platinum - made in China: Vietnam

The Gillette Goal brand is for Indonesia, not Vietnam.

There is also Gillette Rubie for the Philippines.
