History of PGC 
Over the years, P&G's business has been built on the use, production, and sale of oleochemicals. P&G has a long history of investments in the oleochemicals business and has adopted numerous changes within the company and leveraged those changes for the markets they serve. P&G Chemicals (PGC) emerged as a division within greater P&G to carry on the original business functions of the company. From its early days in the 1800s to the present day, PGC has taken a comprehensive approach to the oleochemicals business, thus ensuring supply dependability, reliable expertise, and global chemical capabilities. Starting in 1837, Procter and Gamble began producing chemicals, utilizing stearic acid, and re-selling the co-product red oil (olein) in Cincinnati, OH. In 1858, P&G began producing branded products, starting with Star Glycerin, P&G’s first brand. Developing a host of new facilities in North America, Europe, and Asia, PGC has developed a competitive global supply chain and absorbed much of the original business functions of greater P&G. Specializing in the production of glycerine, methyl esters, alcohols, amines, fatty alcohols, and sucrose polyesters like Sefose and Olean, PGC supplies a variety of oleochemicals to companies around the world.
