The Campbells Company (NASDAQ: CPB) is a U.S.-based packaged food manufacturer that operates through two reporting segments: Meals & Beverages (sold primarily in the U.S. and Canada) and Snacks (sold globally, including in Latin America). The Meals & Beverages segment covers soups, broths, pasta sauces, Mexican sauces, juices, frozen entrées, and yogurts under brands such as Campbells, Swanson, Pacific Foods, Prego, Pace, V8, Raos, Michael Angelos, and Noosa. The Snacks segment covers cookies, crackers, pretzels, and chips under brands including Pepperidge Farm, Goldfish, Snyders of Hanover, Lance, Cape Cod, Kettle Brand, Late July, and Snack Factory.
Products are sold across a broad channel mix that includes retail food chains, mass discounters, mass merchandisers, club stores, convenience stores, dollar stores, e-commerce, foodservice, and independent contractor distributors. The company was founded in 1869, is headquartered in Camden, New Jersey, and was renamed from Campbell Soup Company to The Campbells Company in November 2024.
CPB sits within the Packaged Foods & Meats sub-industry of Consumer Staples, a defensive category characterized by steady demand and pricing power tied to brand equity rather than volume growth. The dual-segment structure pairs shelf-stable meals (typically center-store grocery) with shelf-stable snacks (often distributed via direct-store-delivery networks), giving the company exposure to both grocery and convenience/snacking occasions.
- Sovos Brands integration drives premium Raos pasta sauce growth
- Snacks segment margins expand on Snyders and Goldfish pricing power
- Soup category volume decline pressures Meals & Beverages revenue
