After many years of underperformance, emerging markets are shining in 2017. Growth has rebounded strongly and domestic currencies in many developing countries have strengthened against the dollar. This rebound has benefitted companies that derive a significant portion of their sales from emerging markets.
Headquartered in London, UK, Unilever PLC is a multinational consumer goods company. The company has a huge portfolio of more than 400 well-known brands including Dove, Lipton, Knorr and Ben & Jerry’s. Emerging markets account for about 60% of their sales.
The company reported better than expected results, thanks mainly to strong growth in emerging markets. The company saw strong pricing power in emerging markets; price growth was particular impressive in Asia.

UL is a Zacks Rank#1 (Strong Buy) stock with a dividend yield of 2.9% and expected EPS growth of about 12%.
Tupperware is a multi-brand, direct to consumer sales company. They are known mainly for their serving containers and beauty products.
