Flora Original vegetable spread

Flora is a prominent global brand of margarine and vegetable-based spreads. Originally developed as an alternative to butter, it gained significant recognition for its focus on heart health and plant-based ingredients. The brand was historically a part of Unilever's food portfolio for many decades, where it established a strong presence across European markets including the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Czech Republic (as evidenced by the Czech labeling visible on the packaging).

In 2018, Unilever sold its spreads division to KKR, a private equity firm, which subsequently formed Upfield. Upfield is now the world’s largest producer of plant-based spreads and cheeses. Flora products sold in the European region are typically manufactured in specialized facilities, notably in Poland, but production varies depending on the specific regional market and supply chain optimization. The brand continues to lead the market by transitioning several of its products to fully vegan recipes under Upfield's ownership.
