About Unilever Foodsolutions

At Unilever Foodsolutions, we draw on a Unilever and Bestfoods heritage stretching over 100 years, with in-depth culinary expertise. Unilever Foodsolutions was created in 2001 following the acquisition of Bestfoods, underscoring Unilever’s commitment to the foodservice market and the recognition that competing effectively in this market requires focus, specialisation of people and products.

Operating in 66 countries, employing around 4,500 people world wide, Unilever Foodsolutions holds leading positions in Bouillons/Bases, Seasonings, Sauces, Soups, Dressings, Tea and Desserts. While having a global scale, our focus on local markets ensures relevancy.

Sold and developed under well-known brands such as Knorr, Hellmann’s, Lipton, Carte d’Or and Flora, our products are used extensively by hotels, restaurants and canteens worldwide – operators who are the driving inspiration behind our products offering.

At the heart of our approach is our close working relationships with Chefs and trade partners, leading brands, consumer insight, and Chefmanship^TM – an absolute passion for food.

Through visiting customers in their kitchens we understand their needs, helping to ensure we do our utmost to provide products and expertise that supports them. We employ hundreds of world-class Chefs with rich culinary knowledge and experience, who are closely involved in developing products tailored to the needs of the professional kitchen. The relationships we have developed with our chefs and operators often go back over many years, supporting Chefs as they develop their careers.

Unilever Foodsolutions provides the solutions - products and expertise - that help increase efficiency in the kitchen, create inspiring menus and grow sales revenue. This is how we support all our customers in reaching their goals, growing their business and making them more successful.
