After years of relentless effort and numerous prototypes, Gillette finally found success in 1895 when he produced a crude version of a disposable razor blade. However, he did not stop there. He continued to refine his invention, improving its design and functionality, until he achieved the perfect razor.
He later founded the Gillette Safety Razor Company in Boston, Mass. As per various internet history websites, In 1903, he sold 168 blades, but in the following year he sold 90,000 razors and over 12 million blades. And rest was history, he became a millionaire.
Patience and perseverance paid off for Gillette as he was finally granted a patent for his invention on 15 November 1904. This marked the official birth of the Gillette brand and the beginning of a new era in shaving.
Today, we are fortunate to have access to a wide range of Gillette razors and blades that cater to different preferences and needs. From safety razors to multi-blade cartridges, Gillette has consistently adapted to the changing demands of consumers.
The success of the Gillette brand goes beyond its innovative products. It is also a result of the brand’s commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. The Gillette name has become synonymous with precision and reliability, and generations of men and women have trusted their shaving needs to this iconic brand.
In addition to its product excellence, Gillette has also made significant contributions to society. The brand has been involved in various initiatives promoting men’s health, sports, and social causes. This demonstrates Gillette’s commitment to making a positive impact on the world beyond just razors and blades.
As we celebrate the birth anniversary of King Camp Gillette, let us recognize his vision and the legacy he left behind. His invention not only revolutionized the shaving industry but also brought convenience and efficiency into our daily lives.
So, the next time you reach for a Gillette razor, take a moment to appreciate the years of dedication and innovation that went into its creation. King Camp Gillette’s legacy lives on, and his invention continues to shape the way we groom ourselves.

हम सभी इस रेजर के बारे में जानते हैं और ब्रांड नाम ‘जिलेट’ से अच्छी तरह वाकिफ हैं। ये इसके आविष्कारक और निर्माता किंग कैंप जिलेट के नाम पर है। आज उनकी जयंती है। उनके जन्म ने दुनिया को रेज़र और ब्लेड दिया। आज, रेज़र और ब्लेड निर्माण में सबसे सफल ब्रांड में से एक जिलेट है।
किंग कैंप जिलेट हमेशा से ही किसी ऐसी चीज़ का आविष्कार करना चाहते थे जिसका इस्तेमाल हर कोई कर सके। इसी सोच के साथ उन्होंने लगातार प्रयास किए। आख़िरकार 1895 तक डिस्पोजेबल रेजर ब्लेड का एक कच्चा संस्करण तैयार किया गया। इस आविष्कार को पक्का करने में और छ साल लग गए। 15 नवंबर 1904 को अंततः उन्हें अपने उपयोगी विचार के लिए पेटेंट मिल सका।
बाद में उन्होंने बोस्टन, मास में जिलेट सेफ्टी रेज़र कंपनी की स्थापना की। इंटरनेट पर इतिहास की तमाम वेबसाइट के अनुसार, 1903 में, उन्होंने 168 ब्लेड बेचे, लेकिन अगले वर्ष उन्होंने 90,000 रेज़र और 12 मिलियन से ज़्यादा ब्लेड बेचे। बाकी सब इतिहास बन गया जब इसी बिज़नेस ने उन्हें करोड़पति बना दिया। वो चाहते थे कि लोग न सिर्फ उनके संघर्ष को जाने बल्कि उनके व्यवसाय के अनुभव को भी जानें जिसे सामाजिक सिद्धांतों में बदलने में उन्हें कामयाबी मिल सकी।
