Unilever to combine U.S. foods businesses

 

Consumer products company Unilever said on Tuesday it is combining its U.S. food businesses under one organization, and named Amanda Sourry to lead it.

Sourry is currently vice president and general manager of the meal solutions and new vitality unit, which includes the Slim-Fast brand.

The company is combining Sourry's current unit with the spreads, dressings and beverage groups to form a single unit called the U.S. foods business team.

The new team will manage all of Unilever's U.S. food brands -- such as Lipton, Bertolli, and Hellmann's -- but will not be responsible for its ice cream business, which includes Ben & Jerry's.

Boutique executive search services with best in class global network, contacts and market mastery.

Deeply connected and engaged personal service approach, long-term investment in client community and 25 year history of strong relations with both Multi-National leaders and Private Equity partners.
