About Kiwi
Kiwi is a consumer brand found on Lazada Philippines under the Household Supplies category. Depending on the seller, the brand primarily includes cleaning and home-care products such as surface cleaners, bleach, toilet cleaners, and other household maintenance items. The household line is separate from the better-known KIWI shoe care products, although in some markets they are marketed under the same “KIWI” branding. [1]
Overview

Brand name: Kiwi

History
The Kiwi name is internationally recognized for shoe care products, particularly shoe polish. In several markets, the brand has also expanded into household cleaning products under the Kiwi Household or Kiwi Kleen range. These products are manufactured using locally sourced and imported ingredients depending on the country and are intended for everyday household cleaning. [3]
Unlike the shoe care division—which has undergone significant market changes in recent years due to declining demand in formal shoe maintenance—the household cleaning products continue to be marketed in some regions through local distributors. [4]
Product Range
The Kiwi household lineup varies by country and retailer but commonly includes:
-
Surface Cleaners – Multi-purpose cleaners formulated for kitchens, tables, floors, countertops, and other washable surfaces.
-
Bleach – Laundry and household bleach designed to remove stains, whiten fabrics, and disinfect surfaces.
-
Toilet & Bathroom Cleaners – Products formulated to remove stains, limescale, and bathroom grime.
-
Other Household Cleaning Solutions – Depending on local distribution, additional home-care products may be available under the Kiwi branding. [5]

Notes
Because “Kiwi” is used across different product categories and markets, consumers may encounter two distinct product families:
-
KIWI Shoe Care, historically famous for shoe polish and leather care products.
-
Kiwi Household, a line of home cleaning products marketed in selected regions under the same or closely related branding. [10]
There is limited publicly available corporate information specifically about the Kiwi household brand, such as its founding date, headquarters, or global ownership. Most publicly documented information focuses on the product lineup and regional distribution rather than the brand’s corporate history. [11]
