Unilever is one of the world’s biggest consumer product companies. With 400
brands of beauty & personal care, home care and foods products in over 190
countries, no other company touches so many people's lives in so many different
ways. On any given day, 2.5 billion people use Unilever products to feel good,
look good and get more out of life – giving us a unique opportunity to build a
brighter future.
The breadth of Unilever’s involvement in China has added up to over US$1
billion in investment, the introduction of many advanced technologies and
creation of over 20,000 job opportunities, direct hiring more than 6,000 local
employees. Unilever’s brand portfolio, including OMO, Dove, Lux, Pond’s, Clear,
Hazeline, Lipton, Knorr and Wall’s, is much loved and trusted by Chinese
consumers. Now, Unilever has set up in Shanghai its North Asia headquarters and
Unilever Global R&D Center (Shanghai), one of its six global research
centers.
In 2010 Unilever launched Unilever Sustainable Living Plan which now is
central to our business model. It sets out how we are growing our business,
whilst reducing our environmental footprint and increasing our positive social
impact. We are committed to help more than a billion people take action to
improve their health and well-being; halve the environmental footprint of our
products; source 100% of our agricultural raw materials sustainably and enhance
the livelihoods of people across our value chain.
