British consumer goods giant Unilever operates a global, diverse portfolio, spanning food, personal care, home care, and beauty. Its well-known brands include Comfort, Marmite, Dove, Knorr, Hellmann’s, Sunsilk, Vaseline, Cif, and Lifebuoy. Formed in 1930 from the merger of British soapmaker Lever Brothers and Dutch margarine producer Margarine Unie, Unilever maintained dual nationality until it simplified its structure in 2020, establishing the U.K. as its single headquarters. The company continues to focus on premium segments of beauty, wellbeing, and personal care while maintaining a strong presence in food and home care products.
