...I've looked on several of the P&G websites (they have one for each of the countries in which they operate), and there are plenty of those multiblade cartridges shown, but I'm dashed if I can see a single DE blade.
Or rather Gillette is a brand owned by P&G (as is AoS)

Stove-piping your individual brands by a parent company makes good sense in 2 ways. First, if one brand gets tainted for some reason, you have a degree of separation in the public's mind. Secondly, the old brand loyalty thing 'Oh no, we don't buy Ariel, we always buy Bold...etc'. Ker-ching for the parent company, regardless.P&G have rarely historically gone in for cross-brand promotion though - you'd expect (perhaps) there to be some crossover between laundry detergent and fabric softener for instance (with the exception of Bold 2-in-1) there is rarely/never a mention of (say) Lenor in an Ariel ad (or on the Lenor/Ariel websites)
I can find no current info if that plant is indeed still open as they have closed all other South American production and will IMO shut down St. Petersburg when their huge new plant in Vietnam is completed soon.
Unita 77 is going to get a lot of business in the near future!
Actually speaking... I worked on the integration of Gillette in to P&G in 2004-7...
