Advancing Nutrition Through Food People Love

Nutrition and well-being are important considerations for our work to make food people love. Our nutrition strategy centers on delivering nutritious, affordable, and accessible foods to millions of people. Through innovation and collaboration, we work to continuously improve the nutrition of our products while maintaining the taste and value consumers expect. Our 2026 Corporate Responsibility Report highlights how our nutrition team partners with brands to make meaningful improvements while staying grounded in science, transparency, and trust.

1.Offer nutrition-focused options

We continue to expand choices that provide meaningful nutrition within everyday eating occasions. Our Nutrition-Focused Foods are defined by criteria that emphasize a nutritional benefit either by following strict limits on negative nutrients or delivering positive nutrition like protein, fiber, whole grains, vegetables, and more. In 2026, we updated the criteria to be more rigorous and align with the evolving regulatory environment, including stricter limits on sodium.

Today:

  • 50% of total sales come from products that meet our Nutrition-Focused Foods criteria
  • 4.3 billion cups of vegetables delivered to the marketplace in fiscal year 2025
  • 1.8 billion servings of whole grains delivered to the marketplace in fiscal year 2025

By offering nutrition-focused options across brands and categories, we help people build healthier meals and snacks in ways that fit their real lives. Check out some of our nutrition-focused foods, including some of our new launches:

Campbell's Protein Soups

Each soup provides 20g of protein per can, a good source of fiber and is made with slow-simmered bone broth. With delicious varieties like Lemon Pepper Chicken, Southwest Black Bean, Mediterranean Lentil and more, these soups balance delicious and nutritious.

V8® ENERGY Drink Mix

This convenient, grab-and-go stick pack delivers a steady energy boost with 80mg of caffeine. Each packet has 10 calories, 0g of added sugar, and is high in antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E.

Swanson® Chicken Pouches

These pouches provide at least 11g of high-quality protein per serving and offer a simple, tasty way to add protein to meals and snacks on the go.

V8 ENERGY Yuzu Lemon Energy Drink with Electrolytes

Enjoy this new, refreshing flavor for a limited time. This drink provides steady energy from 80mg of caffeine and is a good source of essential electrolytes, magnesium and potassium.

Pacific Foods® Regen Tomato Soups

Several soups from Pacific Foods use Regenerative Organic Certified tomato paste, including nutrition focused options like Light in Sodium Organic Creamy Tomato Soup, and Spicy Garden Tomato Soup.

2. Lowering negative nutrients-without sacrificing taste

Improving nutrition at scale often means improving what's already in the pantry. That's why we've invested in managing nutrients of concern via reformulation and innovation while keeping taste front and center.

Our performance includes:

  • 85% of total sales come from foods or beverages with one teaspoon or less of added sugar per serving
  • 70% of beverages contain 0g added sugar
  • Since 2020, 60% of our current soup and chili portfolio was reduced in sodium or launched to meet our sodium guidelines.

These advances support healthier choices while maintaining the quality and flavor people expect from our brands.

3. Making nutrition affordable and accessible

We believe nutritious options should be inclusive. Access, affordability, and convenience are essential to driving real impact-especially for households balancing tight budgets and busy schedules.

  • Nutrition-Focused Foods average about $0.70 per serving, compared to $0.87 average cost per serving for the overall portfolio.
  • 80% of our Meals & Beverages qualify for federal feeding programs such as the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) staple foods criteria.

By meeting consumers where they are, we help remove barriers to healthier eating.

Advancing healthier choices through research and collaboration

Supporting all three of these pillars is our commitment to science-based decision making and industry collaboration. From internal R&D teams to partnerships with suppliers, academics, and peers, we continuously invest in improving our foods and the greater health of the food environment overall.
