Unilever Chief Executive Paul Polman is retiring after 10 years at the top of the company.
His annoucement comes less than two months after investors revolted against a plan to move the company's consumer goods group's headquarters to the Netherlands.
Polman will be succeeded by Alan jope, the head of the company's beauty business...
Our global footprint includes strong positions in many important markets for the future and our focus will remain on serving our consumers, and our other multiple stakeholders, to deliver long‐term growth and value creation.
Just like one of Unilever's highest profile products, Marmite, Polman engenders strongly differing opinions from investors.
We consider that Polman has been an exceptionally good CEO of Unilever.
