Unilever is a global company with over 400 brands powered by 168,000 employees
that operates in more than 190 countries. The company has been in business since
the1880s and is headquartered in London, United Kingdom. Paul Polman is the
current Chief Executive Officer (CEO).
Two billion people use Unilever products every day to feel good, look good and get
more out of life. Our Personal Care, Foods, Home Care and Refreshment categories
each contain a portfolio of brands that aim to deliver consistent, competitive,
profitable and responsible growth supported by investment in innovation and
marketing. The company invests around €1 billion every year in research and development.
The portfolio of products and brands is ever-changing and continues to grow. Some of our brands in North America include:
Axe, Becel, Ben & Jerry’s, Breyers, Caress, Country Crock, Dove, Fruttare, Good Humor, I can’t believe it’s not Butter,
Hellman’s, Klondike, Knorr, Lever 2000, Lipton, Magnum, Mazola, Nexxus, Noxzema, Pond’s, Popsicle, Q-tips, St. Ives,
Suave, Sunsilk, Talenti, V05 and Vaseline. August 2016, the company acquired Dollar Shave Club and has recently signed
an agreement to acquire Blueair.
Unilever has a simple but clear Purpose – to make sustainable living commonplace. We believe this is the best long-term
way for our business to grow. Our unswerving commitment to sustainable living is increasingly delivering both more trust
from consumers and a strong business for shareholders with lower risks and consistent, competitive and profitable long-
term growth.
Our business model begins with consumer insight that informs brand innovation, often with partners in our supply chain,
to create products we take to market supported by marketing and advertising across a range of distribution sales
channels.
Historically, distribution sales channels included supermarkets, convenience stores, small and large retailers, dollar
stores and warehouse clubs, such as Costco, BJs and Sam’s Club. Today, the foot traffic in those traditional retailers has
and continues to decline while online and mobile commerce continue to grow. It is very difficult to persuade people to
visit physical stores with the rise of online shopping.
Business Case: We are in a retail revolution, which changes not only how consumers shop, but also how we
interact with them. Develop a business case to speak to how Unilever can efficiently, effectively and most sustainably reach
these digital consumers with our products and platforms.
