Campbell Soup Company (NYSE: CPB) is the world's largest producer of soup with a 60% market share in the $4 billion soup market. Campbell's has leading market share positions in a number of food industry categories with products such as soups, sauces, snack foods, baked goods, and beverages. Campbell's products are sold in over 120 countries around the world.
Campbell's owns a diverse portfolio of food brands including Prego pasta sauces, Pace Mexican food sauces, V8 beverages, and Pepperidge Farm. As the undisputed leader in the soup category, Campbell's must continue to expand and diversify its soup offerings in order to prevent losing its dominant market share. Healthy foods are becoming increasingly popular and Campbell's has introduced a line of low-sodium products in order to attract consumers to this market, but it will be imperative for the company to adapt to evolving trends in consumer habits.
