Accra, Ghana//-Unilever Ghana PLC participated in the ‘Facts Behind The Figures’ forum organised by the Ghana Stock Exchange (GSE) for listed companies.
The Managing Director of Unilever Ghana PLC, Christopher Wulff-Caesar, highlighted the company’s performance amidst a dynamic economic landscape. Unilever Ghana PLC reported a revenue of GHS 930.8 million (2023 GHS 908.6 million).
Despite facing macroeconomic challenges and rising operational costs, the company exhibited resilience, achieving a profit of GHS 58 million and maintaining a strong cash position of GHS 97 million.
Unilever Ghana continues to lead in the Oral Care and Personal Care categories. Our performance in 2024 reflects not only the strength of our trusted brands but also the agility of our business model.
The company has remained focused on innovation, operational efficiency, and building the equity of its heritage brands like Pepsodent, Geisha, and Vaseline.
In 2024, the company further expanded its product portfolio, with the launch of Omo Autos and the reintroduction of Omo Handwash, which has significantly strengthened the company’s Home Care segment.
In alignment with Unilever’s Growth Action Plan (GAP), the Managing Director emphasised several impactful sustainability initiatives, particularly in support of plastics and livelihoods.
Through the Ghana Recycling Initiative by Private Enterprises (GRIPE), the company has championed the development of a viable plastic economy.
Additionally, the company initiated a plastics education program at its site and in various basic schools in collaboration with key players in the plastics industry.
Unilever Ghana PLC also partnered with the British Government and Ernst & Young to support two Ghanaian enterprises in the plastic and agriculture sectors with funding of one hundred thousand pounds (£100,000) each.
Through our hygiene education programs, Pepsodent teaches over one million Ghanaians annually the proper way of brushing their teeth day and night through the twice-brushing campaign in basic schools and communities across the country, alongside product donations aimed at enhancing the health and hygiene status of the beneficiaries.
Mr Wulff-Caesar reiterated the company’s purpose of “Brightening Everyday Life for All,” asserting: “We remain committed to driving consistent, competitive, profitable, and responsible growth through innovation, sustainability, and our people.”
