Unilever has announced that it will combine its dual head office operational structure in London and Rotterdam into a single entity, based in the Dutch city.
The group made the announcement in a release entitled ‘Building the Unilever of the Future’, in which it pledged to turn Unilever ‘into a simpler, more agile and more focused business’.
While the company didn’t mention Brexit in a release announcing the move, analysts had long speculated that Unilever may be planning a simplification of its corporate structure, given the impending departure of the UK from the European Union.
