Higher volumes boost UNVR revenue Growth
- PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk (UNVR) delivered another quarter of positive sales growth in 2Q26, with revenue increasing 11.6% YoY to IDR8.46 trillion. The improvement reflects the continued success of the company’s extensive business reset program, supported by its focus on high-growth categories, social-first demand generation, and go-to-market transformation.
- For 1H26, total sales increased 7.1% YoY to IDR16.89 trillion.
- Unit Volume Growth (UVG) improved significantly to 12.7% YoY in 2Q26, compared with a 4.2% decline in 2Q25. On a 1H26 basis, UVG increased 7.3%, compared with a 6.1% contraction in 1H25. Volume growth was supported by broad-based improvements across UNVR’s key distribution channels. General Trade benefited from continued outlet expansion, while Modern Trade was supported by stronger execution and effective category activation.
- Meanwhile, Unit Price Growth (UPG) declined 1.7% YoY in 2Q26. On a 1H26 basis, UPG remained slightly negative at 0.2%, reflecting the company’s strategy to prioritize volume recovery while maintaining competitive pricing.
- Domestic sales increased 11.0% YoY to IDR8.17 trillion, while export sales grew 33.0% YoY to IDR279.1 billion.
- Following its business portfolio restructuring, UNVR’s market share continued to improve. Value market share increased to 30.8% in 2Q26 from 30.6% in 1Q26, while volume market share rose to 27.0% from 26.3%.
- Looking ahead, we expect both volume and pricing trends to continue improving throughout 2026 as the company’s business reset program gains further traction.
