The comforting side of globalisation part 2
Posted by Mark Sztainbok on August 18, 2006
In my previous posting, I mentioned the comfort of having the same brands in the supermarkets over here as we do in Australia. Having had more of a wander around the supermarkets (having been at least once every day so far since we arrived in Seattle), I’ve noticed that sometimes the same products exist just under different brand names. Here is a list of some of the ones I’ve found so far (the list will increase as I find more):
| Australian name | US name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Finish | Electrasol | Dishwashing powder |
| SoftWash | SoftSoap | Hand wash |
| Rexona | Degree | Deodorant |
| Honda | Acura | Cars |
| Lynx | Axe | Deodorant |
| Preen | Spray ‘n Wash | Stain remover |
