Clorox Acquisition of GOJO Industries and ERP System Upgrade: Opportunities and Challenges Ahead

Clorox announced a planned acquisition of GOJO Industries, the maker of Purell, and completed a major enterprise resource planning (ERP) system upgrade. These developments come as Clorox shares trade around $117.77, up 8.2% over the past week and 16.3% over the past month. The key questions are how effectively Clorox integrates GOJO and how much efficiency it gains from the new ERP system, and whether these moves translate into a stronger health and hygiene footprint and more resilient margins over time.
