The Campbell's Company (NYSE: CPB, formerly Campbell Soup Company) is a major food and beverage manufacturer headquartered in Camden, New Jersey, producing soups, snacks, beverages, and related products with a market cap of approximately $9.25 billion.[2][3][5] Operating through Meals & Beverages (including Campbell's soups, Swanson broths, V8 juices, Prego sauces) and Snacks (Pepperidge Farm cookies, Goldfish crackers, Snyder’s pretzels, Cape Cod chips) segments, it sells via retail chains, e-commerce, and foodservice channels in the US, Canada, Latin America, and internationally.[1][3][4] The company targets everyday consumers seeking convenient, branded foods, addressing demand for nostalgic staples amid shifting preferences toward snacks and healthier options, with recent growth via acquisitions like Sovos Brands in 2023 boosting its portfolio.[3][5]
Founded in 1869, The Campbell's Company began as a soup producer and evolved through strategic acquisitions, starting with Franco-American in 1915, V8 in 1948, and Pepperidge Farm in 1961, entering snacks.[4][5] Under William Beverly Murphy's leadership from 1953-1972, it went public, expanded its brand portfolio including Swanson and Godiva (later divested), and became one of the world's largest food companies.[5] Key pivots include selling Godiva in 2007, acquiring Bolthouse Farms in 2012 for younger demographics, divesting Arnott's and Kelsen in 2019, and buying Sovos Brands for $2.7 billion in 2023; it rebranded from Campbell Soup Company in November 2024 and shifted listing to Nasdaq in August 2024.[3][5]
While not a tech firm, The Campbell's Company rides consumer packaged goods (CPG) trends like snacking growth, health-focused beverages, and digital marketing to engage younger buyers. Timing aligns with post-pandemic shifts to convenience foods and e-commerce sales through retail partners.[3][5] Favorable forces include dominant soup positioning and snack share gains, countering competition via innovation; it influences the ecosystem by setting standards in branded CPG durability, with recent Nasdaq move and rebrand signaling adaptability.[3][4][5]
Sustained investments in marketing, R&D, and acquisitions position The Campbell's Company for modest organic growth and share gains in snacks, with shares attractive per analysts amid CPG recovery. Trends like premiumization and digital visibility will shape it, potentially evolving influence through further diversification if innovation bucks volume headwinds; watch analyst targets ($30-$42) and competitive dynamics in salty snacks.[3][4] This enduring food icon, born from soup, thrives by adapting to modern tastes.
