Liquid detergent was invented by William Shepphard, who patented his invention in 1865. The first commercially produced liquid soap was Palmolive, produced by B.J. Johnson Soap Company in 1898. Soon after, other companies began producing liquid soap and detergent products, such as Tide and Pine-Sol.
