Unilever to build deodorant manufacturing facility in India

Published: 18-Feb-2013

Facility is said to cost €50m


Anglo-Dutch consumer goods giant Unilever is setting up a €50m aerosol deodorant manufacturing facility in Khamgaon, India. As the first facility of its kind in Asia, investment in the new factory will be phased over three years. It will be dedicated to servicing demand from India and across South East Asia including Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam.

The announcement follows soon after Unilever revealed its plans to commit €70m to building new home care liquids and distribution facilities in Thailand, and an additional €75m to building a new factory and expanding existing manufacturing plants in South Africa.
