Our Products
Beauty
In 1996, HUL and yet another Tata company, Lakmé Limited, formed a 50:50 joint venture, Lakmé Unilever Limited, to market Lakmé's market-leading cosmetics and other appropriate products of both the companies. Subsequently in 1998, Lakmé Limited sold its brands to HUL and divested its 50% stake in the joint venture to the company.
Dairy Products/ Icecreams
The 1990s also witnessed a string of crucial mergers, acquisitions and alliances on the Foods and Beverages front. In 1992, the erstwhile Brooke Bond acquired Kothari General Foods, with significant interests in Instant Coffee. In 1993, it acquired the Kissan business from the UB Group and the Dollops Icecream business from Cadbury India.
Tea/Coffee
The erstwhile Brooke Bond's presence in India dates back to 1900. By 1903, the company had launched Red Label tea in the country. In 1912, Brooke Bond & Co. India Limited was formed. Brooke Bond joined the Unilever fold in 1984 through an international acquisition. The erstwhile Lipton's links with India were forged in 1898. Unilever acquired Lipton in 1972, and in 1977 Lipton Tea (India) Limited was incorporated.
