Cabraal new chairman at Unilever

Amal Cabraal

Amal Cabraal, Director of Brands at Unilever, takes over as chairman of the powerful consumer-goods multinational from September, being only the second Sri Lankan to be appointed to this post. Ironically the first Sri Lankan chairman, Stanley Jayawardene who served from 1985 to 1987, is Cabraal’s father-in-law, another unique feature of the company, officials said.

Current chairman Ehsan Malik who turned around the firm when it was plagued with labour strikes and disputes some years ago has been appointed Chairman, Unilever, Pakistan. Cabraal has been at Unilever for more than 20 years.
