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.




History


Unilever Pakistan Limited was founded as Lever Brothers Pakistan Limited in 1948. 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.
In December 1980, Unilever was listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange.
In 1989, Unilever merged with Lipton in 1989 and later with Brooke Bond in 1997. In May 1995, it expanded into ice cream manufacturing by amalgamating with Polka.
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.
It has four factories operating in the country.
In August 2024, the Competition Commission of Pakistan imposed a Rs. 60 million fine on Unilever Pakistan for airing television commercials containing deceptive claims for its hygiene and cleansing products, ‘Lifebuoy Hand Wash’ and ‘Lifebuoy Soap’.
