| | Unilever - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Formally, Unilever was created in 1930 by the merger of British soapmaker Lever Brothers and Dutch margarine producer Margarine Unie, a logical merger as palm oil was a major raw material for both margarines and soaps and could be imported more advantageously in larger quantities. | | | Unilever (Euronext: UNA, LSE: ULVR, NYSE: UN) is an Anglo-Dutch company that owns many of the world's consumer product brands in foods, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products. | | | Currently unilever has chosen to focucs on 400 brands out of its 1600 in a bid to increase its proffits by reducing the variety of advertising and packaging. |

| | Unilever's Many Woes |
| | With a stable of well-known brands, including Ben and Jerry's ice cream, Sunsilk shampoo, and Lipton Tea, Unilever is both the second-largest food company in the world behind Nestlé; (NSRGY) and the second-largest consumer-products company, behind Procter and Gamble (PG), according to Unilever. | | | In addition to facing competition from slickly promoted rivals such as PandG and Nestlé;, Unilever also vies for market share with increasingly popular store-specific value brands, which fill the shelves of Europe's "hard discounters" such as Aldi. | | | Despite talk of more consolidation, however, Unilever seems unlikely to go on its own shopping spree. |
