Unilever, the owner of brands ranging from Marmite and Ben & Jerry’s to Dove soap and Domestos bleach, has raised its prices by 11.2% in recent months and expects to do so again throughout the year.
The increase in prices in the three months to the end of June helped the Anglo-Dutch consumer goods group report sales growth of 8.1% in the first half of 2022, as the rises compensated for falling volumes of goods sold.
