UnileverInvestorDays
This month Hugo and Steven attended the Unilever investor
daysinManilaandSingapore,wheretheyjoinedfieldtripsto
consumers homes and to various sales channels. They also
had the opportunity to meet senior management. The
overarching impression was of the quality of Unilevers
people, and the strength and coherence of the corporate
culture. This is perhaps the prime example of how putting
sustainability at the heart of a business model can create
competitive advantage by energising the organisation with a
sense of shared purpose, as well as driving valueadding
productdevelopmentandbrandpositioning(seeESGsection).

a fascinating presentation containing a digital advert that

personal care industry where ecommerce and social media
have opened the doors to niche new entrants, this better

Beiersdorf posted an uptick in sales growth in Q3, coupled
withimprovingmargins.However,thisresulthidadivergence
between the better performing consumer business and the
more cyclical Tesa industrial adhesives segment (which
accounts for around 20% of operating profit). Still, the
strength of the core Nivea brand, from which about 60% of
