Unilever Pakistan Limited, formerly Lever Brothers Pakistan Limited ( Urdu: یونی لیور پاکستان), is a Pakistani fast-moving consumer goods company based in Karachi. It is a subsidiary of the British multinational company Unilever.
Unilever Pakistan Limited was founded as Lever Brothers Pakistan Limited in 1948. [2] The town of Rahim Yar Khan was the site chosen for setting up a personal care factory. In the mid 1960s, the company shifted its headquarters to Karachi from the Rahim Yar Khan site. [3]
In December 1980, Unilever was listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange. [4]
In 1989, Unilever merged with Lipton in 1989 and later with Brooke Bond in 1997. [2] Two years later, in May 1999, it expanded into ice cream manufacturing by amalgamating with Polka. [2]
In 2008, Unilever closed its Lipton tea factory in Karachi and instead contracted out packaging of branded tea to a local company that employs people on a temporary basis. [5]
It has four factories operating in the country. [4]
In 2003, Unilever announced the strategic decision to sell off the Dalda brand in both India and Pakistan. [6] In 2003, Bunge Limited acquired the Dalda brand from Hindustan Unilever Limited for reportedly under Rs 100 crore. [7] On 30 March 2004, Unilever Pakistan accepted an offer of Rs. 1.33 billion for the sale of its Dalda brand and related business of edible oils and fats to the newly incorporated company Dalda Foods (Pvt.) Limited. [8]
