May 2025

Unilever is the number two player in global cooking ingredients and meals, mainly thanks to its leadership of the sauces, dips and condiments category, although it also has a significant presence in meals and soups. Unilever continued to close the gap on leading player Kraft Heinz in 2024, with expectations that it could even overtake it in the coming years.
