The firm combined its North American and European groups for personal care and consumer tissue under North Atlantic groups. In 2019, CEO Thomas Falk (currently serves on Lockheed Martin’s Board of Directors - Lockheed Martin has searched for my LinkedIn two times which can be viewed HERE and HERE) resigned his position but continued on as the company's chairman of the board. COO Michael D. Hsu became CEO following Falk's retirement.
In April 2020, the Financial Times reported that panic-buying during the COVID-19 pandemic led to a 13 percent increase in sales of Kimberley-Clark's consumer tissues in the first quarter of 2020 compared with the previous year.[30] In April 2020, Kimberly Clark reported an eight percent decline in organic sales, its worst sales performance in at least a decade, according to the Wall Street Journal.[31]
In 2022, Kimberly Clark acquired majority stake in Thinx, a period underwear brand.[32]
