Marmite Yeast Extract Spread

Marmite is a quintessentially British savoury spread made from yeast extract, a by-product of beer brewing. It was originally invented in 1902 in Burton-upon-Trent, Staffordshire, England, where it continues to be produced today. The brand is famous for its 'Love it or Hate it' marketing campaign, reflecting its intense, salty, and unique flavour profile.

Over the decades, the ownership of Marmite has transitioned through various corporate mergers. Originally established by the Marmite Food Extract Company, it eventually became part of the multi-national consumer goods portfolio of Unilever. Today, Unilever manages the brand globally, maintaining its status as a staple in British households and expanding its reach to international markets.
