Hindustan Unilever Limited (HUL) on June 2, 2016 announced new appointments to the Management Committee of the Company. The fast-moving-consumer-goods (FMCG) conglomerate has announced the separation of its foods and refreshments business into two separate businesses.

Sudhir Sitapati, who is currently the Regional Category Vice President, Refreshments (South Asia and Africa), Unilever, will be inducted into the Management Committee of HUL as Executive Director, Refreshments.

On the other hand, Geetu Verma, who currently is the Executive Director, Foods and Refreshments, will continue to look after the foods business. Her new designation will be Executive Director, Foods as Verma continues to be a member of the Management Committee of HUL.

The change is in alignment with the category structure of Unilever globally. Both the businesses have registered strong growth under Verma's leadership and have now reached a significant scale. The reorganisation will enable sharper focus and help to fully leverage the growth opportunities in line with HUL's ambitions.

Sudhir Sitapati (39) joined the company in 1999 as a management trainee from IIM Ahmedabad. In the last 17 years, he has worked in various roles in Customer Development and Marketing across the Home and Personal Care (HPC) as well as Foods and Refreshments categories.

Prior to his appointment as Regional Category Vice President, Refreshments (South Asia and Africa), Unilever, Sitapati was the General Manager of Personal Wash Category for HUL. He brings a rich experience of working in diverse markets like Europe, South East Asia and Africa in addition to India.
