A It means that SC Johnson has been led by the Johnson family for five generations. Fisk Johnson, our current Chairman and CEO, is the great-great-grandson of the company's founder. Being a family company also means we hold tight to core values like integrity and trust. Being privately held enables us to focus on doing what's right for the next generation, not just the next quarter's earnings report. Learn more about our family story. The company was founded in Racine in 1886 when Samuel Curtis Johnson bought the parquet flooring business from the Racine Hardware Company.

Like many origin stories, the tale of SC Johnson founder Samuel Curtis Johnson had many twists and turns before he created our family company. Born in 1833, Samuel spent the first five decades of his life throughout the U.S. Midwest, working in industries from the railroad to retail. But as luck would have it, none of his ventures produced real success. In his early years running his new parquet flooring business, Samuel worked tirelessly. He was salesman, bookkeeper and business manager. Five days a week, he toured the countryside selling flooring to contractors for fine homes, churches, hotels and public buildings.
