The brand has traditionally included different types of Keri Lotion such as Keri- Original, Keri- Advanced, Keri- Shea Butter, Keri- Basic Essential, Keri- Luxurious, and Keri- moisture rich oil. Keri lotion was a product of Westwood Pharmaceutical of Buffalo, New York. It was later purchased by Bristol-Mets Squibb.

History

Keri Lotion was first introduced by [Westwood Pharmaceuticals] to the American public in 1960. Keri lotion was put into doctor offices and hospitals, which was how the product was promoted.[1]

In 1998, Bristol Myers spent $6 million on advertising its original Keri Brand. In 1999, it was expected to double.

Innovation

Keri Lotion is now owned by NOVARTIS Pharmaceuticals. But is licensed by GlaxoSmithKline.
