Kimberly-Clark Invests in Peru

Huggies maker to add diaper line at Ate plant

Kimberly-Clark is investing in a new diaper production line at its Santa Clara (Ate) plant in Peru. The investment which will be complete later this year will meet demand for diapers in Peru and other Latin American countries.

K-C, the maker of Huggies diapers, is looking to strengthen its business in the country, where it also makes toilet paper at plants in Ate and Puente Piedra, and is active in other baby care categories including wipes and shampoo. Currently, Huggies’ marketshare in the country exceeds 50%.
