Description: KHC Kraft Heinz December 17, 2025
The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ: KHC) manufactures and markets a broad portfolio of food and beverage products-including condiments, cheese, meals, meats, coffee, and snack items-under iconic brands such as Kraft, Heinz, Oscar Mayer, Philadelphia, and Lunchables. Its distribution network spans company-owned sales forces, independent brokers, and a wide array of retail and food-service channels, from grocery chains and mass merchants to e-commerce platforms and institutional accounts.
Key performance indicators (as of FY 2024) show revenue of roughly $27 billion with an adjusted EBITDA margin near 13 %, reflecting modest pricing power amid rising commodity costs for dairy and meat. The packaged-foods sector is currently pressured by inflation-driven consumer price sensitivity and a shift toward private-label and “better-for-you” products, while supply-chain resilience and scale remain competitive advantages for KHC.
