Born from a basketball-tournament problem, Game Face Grooming makes American-manufactured face and body wipes that help athletes and other active people clean up when there is no shower nearby. Founder and CEO Philip Williams drew on his sports-brand marketing experience to develop the line, which Walmart helped bring to more than 3,000 U.S. stores after the company’s 2016 U.S. Manufacturing Summit breakthrough. Game Face has since expanded into broader grooming and sneaker-care products while retaining its practical, on-the-go focus.
