Margarine Unie was a Dutch company that played a significant role in the development of the margarine industry. It was founded in 1927 through the merger of two major margarine manufacturers, Jurgens and Van den Bergh. The company was headquartered in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

History[edit]

Formation[edit]

Margarine Unie was formed in 1927 when Anton Jurgens and Samuel van den Bergh, two prominent margarine manufacturers, decided to merge their companies. Jurgens was the founder of Jurgens Margarine Factory, while Van den Bergh was the founder of Van den Bergh & Jurgens Margarine Factory. The merger aimed to consolidate their resources and expertise to create a stronger and more competitive company in the margarine industry.

Operations[edit]

Margarine Unie primarily focused on the production and distribution of margarine, edible oils, and soap. The company had a wide range of margarine products catering to different consumer preferences and needs. They also produced various edible oils for cooking and baking purposes. In addition, Margarine Unie had a soap division that manufactured and marketed soap products.

Merger with Lever Brothers[edit]

In 1930, Margarine Unie merged with Lever Brothers, a British soap manufacturer, to form a new company called Unilever. The merger was driven by the desire to create a global consumer goods company with a diverse product portfolio. Unilever became one of the largest multinational companies in the world, operating in various sectors including food, beverages, cleaning agents, and personal care products.

Legacy[edit]

The merger of Margarine Unie and Lever Brothers resulted in the formation of Unilever, which went on to become a major player in the global consumer goods industry. Unilever's success can be attributed to the strong foundation laid by Margarine Unie and Lever Brothers, as well as their commitment to innovation and quality.
