Solo Margarine

Solo is a prominent Belgian brand of margarine and cooking fats with a history stretching back to 1929. Originally launched by Union NV in Belgium, it became a staple in Belgian kitchens, known primarily for its high-quality products specialized for baking and frying. The product shown, identified by its golden packaging and Belgian barcode (871...), is a cornerstone of the regional culinary tradition.

The brand was part of the Unilever portfolio for several decades until Unilever decided to divest its spreads division. In 2018, the brand was acquired by Upfield, a global leader in plant-based nutrition. Today, Solo remains a key brand under Upfield, with production primarily centered in Belgium to serve the local and European markets. Upfield is headquartered in the Netherlands and focuses on sustainable, plant-based alternatives to traditional dairy products.
