What we do and do the best!

In fact 16 of our 40 brands are market leaders including Persil, Dove, Magnum, Marmite, Lynx - and you can find our products in the kitchens, fridges, freezers and bathrooms in nine out of every ten UK homes. London is home to one of our two global headquarters, the other being in Rotterdam in the Netherlands. We have three global research facilities at Port Sunlight, Colworth and Leeds, as well as manufacturing sites and distribution depots around the UK. With annual UK sales of around 2 billion euros, we go to great lengths to ensure that that we build on and maintain the trust between our business and the people who buy our products. We believe that this trust is earned through the way we care about and contribute to the society – and not just through the benefits our products deliver. Through employee volunteering, community work and charitable donations, we contribute around £8 million to projects in the UK, including pioneering initiatives in sustainable development, education, the arts, and nutrition and health.
