The investment comes as the company’s Whitman Facility celebrates its 60th year in business.

The UK will serve as the primary manufacturing base for candles across The Estée Lauder Companies’ (ELC) prestige brand portfolio worldwide, including the Jo Malone London, Tom Ford and Aerin brands.
The investment comes as ELC Whitman manufacturing facility celebrates its 60th anniversary.
“For sixty years, Whitman has reflected the craftsmanship, quality, and innovation that have defined The Estée Lauder Companies since my grandparents founded the business,” said William P. Lauder, chair of the board of directors. “When my family established our manufacturing footprint here in 1966, we recognized the remarkable depth of British artisanal skill, and we are proud to continue investing in that legacy today.”
Established in 1966, officials say Whitman is a strategic part of The Estée Lauder Companies’ global manufacturing network, producing skin care and fragrance products for brands including Jo Malone London, Estée Lauder, Clinique and La Mer. Today, the site produces more than 90 million units annually for distribution across the UK, Europe and other select markets worldwide.
As ELC continues to invest in Whitman’s future, the company will integrate select luxury candle and home fragrance capabilities from long-standing partner and creator of luxury candles and scent diffusers, Contract Candles, into its UK manufacturing operations. This includes assuming the lease of one of Contract Candles’ two UK facilities, welcoming approximately 50 employees into the organization over time, and adding new research and development and quality capabilities.
“The UK plays a significant role in our global manufacturing network, and this investment in candle and home fragrance manufacturing reflects our continued commitment to British craftsmanship and innovation,” said Roberto Canevari, executive vice president, chief value chain officer, The Estée Lauder Companies, during the celebration. “Bringing these activities more closely into our manufacturing network will strengthen resilience and support our ability to continue delivering the exceptional quality and artistry that define our brands.”
