William Lever 73, (1851-1925) Industrialist, Philanthropist
William Hesketh Lever, 1st Viscount Leverhulme (19th September 1851 - 7th May 1925) was an English industrialist, philanthropist, and politician.

In politics, Lever briefly sat as a Liberal MP for Wirral and later, as Lord Leverhulme, in the House of Lords as a Peer. He was an advocate for expansion of the British Empire, particularly in Africa and Asia, which supplied palm oil, a key ingredient in Lever's product line.

William Hesketh Lever born September 19, 1851 in Bolton now part of Greater Manchester. Meet William Hesketh Lever
A man you’ve probably never heard of but you use his products every day
He began in a grocery store in Bolton earning a shilling a week and went on to become one of the richest men in the world
In 1884, he unveiled Sunlight Soap forever altering our perception of cleanliness
He built Port Sunlight not just as a soap factory but a visionary utopian village setting entirely new standards for workers' well-being.
"He intended to extend his vision to the Belgian Congo, where he sourced essential raw materials. However, the reality was far from utopian. The conditions for the workers were often deplorable, enduring hardships little better than slavery. Lever's dream didn't fully materialize in this colonial venture. His story is a paradox – a man of great philanthropy and progressiveness entangled in the moral complexities of the era's colonial exploitation."
