The Rise of Consumer Goods Giant Unilever

[The Lawspeaker]

Unilever is a Dutch-British transnational consumer goods company co-headquartered in Rotterdam, Netherlands and London, United Kingdom. Its products include food, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products. Unilever owns over 400 brands, with a turnover in 2016 of over 50 billion euros, and thirteen brands with sales of over one billion euros: Axe/Lynx, Dove, Omo, Becel/Flora, Heartbrand ice creams, Hellmann's, Knorr, Lipton, Lux, Magnum, Rama, Rexona/Degree, Sunsilk and Surf. During the second half of the 20th century the company increasingly diversified from being a maker of products made of oils and fats, and expanded its operations worldwide.

I think that this company, like Shell, should be broken up and whereas I think that the Dutch part of Shell should be nationalised and merged with the NAM (a daughter company of Shell), Gasunie and a lot of small chemical companies who often violate environmental laws into a national chemical company based on Statoil, Unilever should be broken up and scattered into a million different pieces. The same goes for scumbag corporations like Bayer and Monsanto.

[oh-nahhh]

I used to work at univlever. The smell from the production really sticks in your nose.

I could feel it for several months after I was gone.
