Venezuela will begin to present regulated prices to about 385 companies that produce personal care and cleaning products including Colgate-Palmolive Co., Procter & Gamble Co. and Unilever NV today.

The government’s price regulation agency, which froze the price of 19 goods ranging from deodorant to toilet paper in November, said in a statement late yesterday that the companies can retrieve documents detailing the new regulated price and the government calculations for profit margins on the goods beginning today until Feb. 18.
