The brand in the North and Latin American markets was owned by Merck & Co. through its predecessor Schering-Plough until they sold it to Bayer on 1 October 2014.[1] Aurelius AG bought the brand for all other markets from Reckitt Benckiser on 21 July 2014.[2] HistoryPodiatrist William Mathias Scholl started the brand in 1906, in Chicago, United States. The original company expanded globally to design and patent over 1000 foot care products and became a member of the Fortune 500 in 1971. After William Scholl died in 1968, Schering-Plough bought the brand. Under parent Merck & Co., Schering-Plough imports the product line from China and has a North American distribution agreement with the Brown Shoe Company. In 1984, Schering-Plough sold the global brand and non-North American operations to European Home Products, who manufacture and distribute footwear and foot care products under the Scholl brand.
