Who we are
If you don’t know much about us, you definitely know our brands.
In fact you’ve probably recently eaten one, cleaned with one, or applied one to your face, body or hair.
We sell around 150 million products every day, which makes us one of the world’s largest foods businesses and a leader in home and personal care markets. Our mission is ‘to add vitality to life’ and our brands meet people’s everyday needs for nutrition, hygiene and personal care.
We might be a global business, but we’re made up of regional operations that focus on local markets. This helps us develop products that reflect the different lifestyles that people around the world lead. Our commitment to developing strong local businesses with locally-trained managers makes Unilever unique – and it’s why we call ourselves the ‘multi-local multinational’.
Our passion for responsible business practice also sets us apart. We work with charities, governments and environmental groups to help local people and conserve the environment. Way back in the 1890s one of Unilever’s founders created a village for his factory workers to improve standards of living. Today, Australian employees are involved in a diverse range of activities, from cleaning up the environment, charity fundraising to acting as reading partners to local primary school children on long term projects. In any Unilever country you'll find many other examples of our people supporting their communities.
We're one family - a team of innovative consumer goods companies that reaches around the world. Made up of business units like Foodsolutions, Foods, Home and Personal Care (HPC) and our Ice Cream & Frozen Food division, you may find yourself working with colleagues in other functions and other countries.
