Impactful innovation
Innovation is a key source of our competitive advantage. In a changing world, we strive to ensure that our product portfolio meets consumers’ evolving needs. Every choice we make about how we innovate strengthens our purpose.
We drive continuous improvement and productivity savings by reviewing our processes and maximising our procurement spend across our brands and business units.
We identify opportunities through consumer research, customer feedback, key market and scientific trends. We address those needs by developing creative, superior solutions, so we can provide consumers with better products, while innovating to improve resilience, flexibility and productivity.
Our strategic decisions are guided by leveraging our data and systems to foster a culture where everyone is encouraged to innovate and share knowledge.
A new model for innovation
Our Science & Innovation Centres bring together science, consumer insight, digital capability and product development, enabling ideas to move faster from insight to action, and from concept to impact.
Our newest centre in Shanghai represents the next generation of this model. Designed as a fully integrated ecosystem, it reflects how innovation is changing and where it is accelerating fastest.
Here, teams work side by side, combining deep scientific expertise with advanced data, evidence generation and AI-enabled tools to better understand consumer needs and respond at pace.
