Kiwi (shoe polish) Kiwi (shoe polish) Kiwi is the brand name of a shoe polish, first launched and sold in Australia in 1906 and sold in almost 180 countries. Previously owned by the Sara Lee Corporation since 1984, it was sold in 2011 to S. C. Johnson. It is the dominant shoe polish in some countries, including the United Kingdom and the United States, where it has about two-thirds of the market. In Malaysia, Kiwi has become such a household brand for shoe polish that the word "kiwi" has been genericized into a verb in the Malay language, meaning "to polish one's shoes".
