consumption and converting to sustainably sourced supplies. In
doing this we are dependent on the efforts of partners and various
certification bodies. We are also committed to improving health and
well-being and enhancing livelihoods around the world so Unilever
and our communities grow successfully together. There can be no

failure to do so could limit Unilever's growth and profit potential
