Leading in the next era of corporate sustainability in the U.S.

The challenge and opportunity

From day one, our mission has been simple: create products that deliver value to the people we serve and do good for the world. In the U.S., Unilever’s largest market, iconic brands like Dove, Hellmann’s, Vaseline, and Liquid I.V. can be found on bathroom counters and in kitchen cabinets as a core part of people’s everyday routines. In fact, 98% of households in the U.S. have purchased a Unilever product in the last year. With this trust comes a responsibility to lead and a duty to do more than the minimum. That’s why we are committed to delivering progress, while creating unmissably superior products for everyone.

For decades, we’ve led the way in proving business profit, environmental progress, and community wellbeing go hand-in-hand. We believe sustainability is a growth engine and a driving force behind what we do and across many facets of our operations.

From manufacturing and marketing to sourcing and product innovation, we are focused on delivering impact on four priority areas: climate, nature, plastics and livelihoods. We are working toward cutting plastic waste, helping farmers adopt regenerative agriculture practices, shrinking carbon footprints, and improving livelihoods across our value chain. We recognize sustainability isn’t a solo mission. While we have influence as one of the largest companies in the world, we know real change happens when we team up. That’s why we’re committed to working with partners in creating solutions that matter.
