Headquartered in Middleton, Wisconsin, Spectrum Brands traces its roots back to the founding of Ray-O-Vac in 1906. Over the decades the company expanded through strategic acquisitions and divestitures, rebranding as Spectrum Brands in 2005 to reflect its broadened scope. This history of growth by acquisition has enabled Spectrum to integrate complementary product lines and leverage shared distribution channels, helping the company maintain a competitive position across multiple consumer markets.
Spectrum Brands maintains a global footprint, distributing products in more than 160 countries through a mix of direct-to-retailer relationships, e-commerce platforms and third-party distributors. Its operations span North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America, with regional sales and marketing teams focused on adapting product offerings to local consumer preferences. The company’s supply chain network includes manufacturing facilities and distribution centers in key markets to support efficient product flow and responsiveness to seasonal demand shifts.
Since March 2019, David Maura has served as President and Chief Executive Officer, guiding the company through a strategic refocus on core brands and cost efficiency initiatives. Under his leadership, Spectrum Brands has pursued portfolio optimization—prioritizing high-margin, high-growth categories—while investing in innovation and sustainability programs. The company continues to emphasize brand strength, product quality and customer service as cornerstones of its long-term growth strategy.
