Unilever Nederland

Shareholders of Unilever Nederland B.V.

No shareholder rows are held for Unilever Nederland B.V. (KVK 24269393). The provider record returns a jurisdiction note explaining that Dutch shareholder information is filed with KVK and the UBO register, and holds no shareholder rows at all as at the provider sync of 23 September 2026. This is an absence of data, not evidence that the company has no shareholders.

Ownership is nevertheless documented in the parent’s filings. Unilever PLC’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2025, note 27, states that the aggregate percentage of equity capital held directly or indirectly by Unilever PLC in Unilever Nederland B.V. is 100%, as at 31 December 2025. The accompanying list of group companies (Exhibit 8.1) marks undertakings that are held directly by Unilever PLC; Unilever Nederland B.V. carries no such mark, so the interest is held indirectly. The filing does not name the registered shareholder of record, and that shareholder was not established from a primary source.

A Dutch B.V. keeps its own shareholders’ register, which is not a public document. KVK records the details of a sole shareholder where a B.V. has one, but only in the paid Handelsregister extract; KVK’s free search returned no data to automated requests on 25 September 2026.

The AFM substantial-holdings register records notifications about listed issuers. Any Unilever holdings it lists concern Unilever PLC, the listed parent, and are not holdings in Unilever Nederland B.V.

Ultimate beneficial ownership

No ultimate beneficial owner of Unilever Nederland B.V. has been verified. The ownership chain runs to a widely held listed company rather than to an identified natural person, and no authoritative source consulted names a UBO for this entity. The Dutch UBO register has been closed to general public access since the Court of Justice of the European Union ruling on beneficial-ownership registers; KVK states that access is being reopened only to institutions enforcing the Wwft anti-money-laundering act and to sanctioning bodies.

Data availability

Shareholder availability for this entity is Restricted: the underlying register entry exists but the shareholder field is reachable only through a paid KVK extract, and UBO data is not publicly accessible in the Netherlands. The 100% figure above is the parent’s own consolidated disclosure of capital held directly or indirectly, not a registry filing naming a shareholder of record.

Directors and officers of Unilever Nederland B.V.

The structured officer data held for Unilever Nederland B.V. (KVK 24269393) contains a single record, reported as active: surname Beek, given name shown only as the initial “F.”, role recorded as Director, address country the Netherlands. The record carries no appointment date, no termination date, no nationality and no residence, and the provider reports one result in total. The underlying sync is dated 23 September 2026.

That single row could not be confirmed against the Dutch trade register. KVK’s free company search is a JavaScript application that returns no company data to an automated request, and the Uittreksel Handelsregister — the extract that lists a company’s bestuurders, their date of registration and their authority to represent the company (alleen/gezamenlijk bevoegd) — is a paid product. No appointment or resignation for this company was located in any official Dutch publication.

One provider row should not be read as the full board. Unilever does not publish the boards of individual national operating companies in its annual report, so no independent list of this company’s bestuurders was available for comparison.

Data availability

Officer availability for the Netherlands is Restricted for this entity: KVK does record directors and authorised representatives with their registration dates, but only in the paid extract, and the free interface could not be reached programmatically on 25 September 2026. Nationality is not disclosed — the Dutch trade register does not publish the nationality of directors, and none of the sources consulted records it, so no nationality is stated here. Dates of birth are recorded by KVK but are not publicly disclosed and are not reproduced on this page. The stored role “Director” is the provider’s English rendering; the Dutch statutory role is bestuurder, and the record does not state whether the appointment is as a sole or joint board member.

Group structure of Unilever Nederland B.V.

Unilever Nederland B.V. (KVK 24269393, Rotterdam) is part of the Unilever group. Its ultimate parent is Unilever PLC, registered in England and Wales under company number 00041424, incorporated on 21 June 1894 and active at Port Sunlight, Wirral. Unilever PLC’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2025 states that 100% of Unilever Nederland B.V.’s equity capital was held directly or indirectly by Unilever PLC at 31 December 2025, and the accompanying list of group companies shows the interest is held indirectly rather than by Unilever PLC itself. The filing does not name the immediate parent, so the intermediate company in the chain is not independently verified. Two further Dutch companies share the Hofplein 19 registered office and appear in the same filing as Unilever group undertakings: Unilever Nederland Holdings B.V. and Unilever Foods & Refreshments Global B.V.

The stored corporate-linkage tree holds 410 nodes rooted at Unilever PLC and places Unilever Nederland B.V. beneath Unilever Nederland Holdings B.V. (KVK 24053802), itself beneath Unilever International Holdings B.V. (KVK 70419337). Unilever’s own filing confirms that Unilever International Holdings B.V. is held directly by Unilever PLC, but it does not confirm the two links below it, which are therefore shown below as a possible relationship rather than a verified one.

Verified corporate relationships

Recent structural changes

Until 2020 the Unilever group had two parent companies: Unilever N.V., seated in Rotterdam, and Unilever PLC, in London, linked by an Equalisation Agreement so that shareholders of each were placed as nearly as possible as if they held shares in a single company. That structure was ended by Unification.

• 26 November 2020 — the NV Demerger Effective Date occurred: Unilever Finance Netherlands B.V. was incorporated and the outstanding NV notes became its obligations (Unilever PLC and Unilever N.V. notice to the London Stock Exchange, 26 November 2020).
• 29–30 November 2020 — Unification completed by cross-border merger. Unilever PLC acquired all of Unilever N.V.’s assets, liabilities and legal relationships by universal succession of title and issued 1,460,713,122 new shares to former N.V. shareholders on a one-for-one basis; Unilever N.V. ceased to exist on 29 November 2020, and dealings in new Unilever PLC shares began on 30 November 2020 on the London Stock Exchange, Euronext Amsterdam and the New York Stock Exchange. Unilever stated at the time that there would be no change to its operations, locations, activities or staffing levels in the Netherlands as a result of Unification.
• 6 December 2025 — Unilever completed the demerger of its ice cream business, which listed as The Magnum Ice Cream Company N.V. in Amsterdam, London and New York; Unilever retained a 19.85% minority stake. Unilever Nederland B.V. remained a Unilever group undertaking at 31 December 2025.

Data availability

Corporate-linkage availability here is Partial. The ultimate parent and the 100% aggregate holding are confirmed by the parent’s audited filing, but the immediate parent is not named in any primary source obtained: KVK records the sole shareholder of a B.V. only in its paid Handelsregister extract, and its free search returned no data to automated requests on 25 September 2026. No direct or indirect subsidiaries of Unilever Nederland B.V. were identified, and the stored linkage tree records none.
