Unilever [company] - Unilever
The world's largest food and oil trust. It was established in 1929 by the merger of Margarine Uni, which had a monopoly on the margarine market in continental Europe, mainly in the Netherlands, and Lever Brothers, a British company that had grown into a giant in soap manufacturing since its founding in 1885. To avoid double taxation, the company has its headquarters in the UK and the Netherlands. It has the same executive composition and dividends. It has a prominent position in the world, operating in 90 countries around the world with edible oils and fats, detergents, feed, etc., and selling in 160 countries. In addition to margarine and edible oil, the food division also handles cheese, tea, ice cream, and frozen foods. In Japan, it established Toyonen Lever (which became Japan Lever, a subsidiary of Unilever in 1977), in 1964 with Toyonen Oil and others. In 1984, it acquired Brooke Bond. Sales for the fiscal year ending December 2011 were 46,467 million euros.
