Unilever has announced an investment of £80 million (US$107 million) to build in-house fragrance capabilities in the UK. The investment will go toward establishing a fragrance facility in Port Sunlight (subject to planning permission), developing digital capabilities, and recruiting fragrance talent and expertise. The facility will include a fragrance research and innovation lab, a compounding facility where new fragrances are blended and developed, and evaluation suites where products are tested to assess performance and preference.
