Up until recently, brands such as Marmite and Ben &amp; Jerry&rsquo;s had the Royal Arms on their products but no longer will.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Whilst we are disappointed to be one of hundreds of other businesses and brands in the UK to not have a new warrant awarded, we are proud to have previously held one, and we fully respect the decision,&rdquo; Unilever and Cadbury&rsquo;s parent company Mondelez wrote in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Charles did not include an explanation for not renewing the warrant, which, in Cadbury&rsquo;s case, had been active since Queen Victoria&rsquo;s reign in the 19th century. Meanwhile, Unilever had its warrant since 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Unilever came under fire for its continued operations in Russia after Russia invaded Ukraine in March 2022. The company was among the first to stop imports and exports in Russia but remained in production.

This work has been very complex and has involved separating IT platforms and supply chains, as well as migrating brands to Cyrillic,&rdquo; Schumacher said. &ldquo;The completion of the sale ends Unilever Russia&rsquo;s presence in the country.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Every warrant lasts five years at a time and is reviewed the year before it expires.
