The Campbell Soup Company, doing business as Campbell's, is an American company, most closely associated with its flagship canned soup products; however through mergers and acquisitions, it has grown to become one of the largest processed food companies in the United States with a wide variety of products under its flagship Campbell's brand as well as other brands including Pepperidge Farm, Snyder's of Hanover, V8, and Swanson. With its namesake brand Campbell's produces soups and other canned foods, baked goods, beverages, and snacks. It is headquartered in Camden, New Jersey.[4]
The classic red-and-white can design used by many Campbell's branded products has become an American icon, and its use in pop art was typified by Andy Warhol's series of Campbell's Soup Cans prints.
History
[edit]Foundation and early history
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/77/Joseph_campbell_portrait.jpg/120px-Joseph_campbell_portrait.jpg)
The company was started in 1869 by Joseph A. Campbell, a fruit merchant from Bridgeton, New Jersey, and Abraham Anderson, an icebox manufacturer from South Jersey.[5] They produced canned tomatoes, vegetables, jellies, soups, condiments, and minced meats.
In 1876, Anderson left the partnership and the company became the "Joseph A. Campbell Preserve Company".[6] Anderson's son, Campbell Speelman, split paths with his father and continued to work at Campbell's as a creative director, originally designing the Campbell's soup cans.[7]

In 1894, Campbell retired and Arthur Dorrance became the company president.[8] Campbell reorganized into "Joseph Campbell & Co." in 1896. In 1897, John T. Dorrance, a nephew of company president Dorrance, began working for the company at a wage of $7.50 a week ($253 in 2022 dollars).[6][9] Dorrance, a chemist with degrees from MIT and Göttingen University, Germany, developed a commercially viable method for condensing soup by halving the quantity of its heaviest ingredient: water.[5] He went on to become president of the company from 1914 to 1930, eventually buying out the Campbell family.[10]
In 1898, Herberton Williams, a Campbell's executive, convinced the company to adopt a carnelian red and bright white color scheme, because he was taken by the crisp carnelian red color of the Cornell University football team's uniforms.[11] To this day, the layout of the can, with its red and white design and the metallic bronze medal seal from the 1900 Paris Exhibition,[12] has changed very little, with the exception of the French phrase on the top of the bronze seal that said "Exposition-Universelle-Internationale" which was changed to the English name of the exhibition as "Paris International Exposition".[citation needed]
Growth under new leadership
[edit]Campbell Soup became one of the largest food companies in the world under the leadership of William Beverly Murphy. He was elected executive vice president of Campbell Soup in 1949 and was president and CEO from 1953 to 1972. While at Campbell's Soup Company, he took the corporation public and increased its brand portfolio to include Pepperidge Farm's breads, cookies, and crackers, Franco-American's gravies and pastas, V8 vegetable juices, Swanson broths, and Godiva's chocolates. David Johnson was president and CEO from 1990 until 1997.
Campbell Soup has invested heavily in advertising since its inception, and many artifacts of its promotional campaigns have proven valuable in the Americana collectible advertising market. Perhaps best known are the "Campbell's Kids" designed by illustrator Grace Drayton.[5] Ronald Reagan was a spokesman for V8 when Campbell's acquired the brand in 1948.[13][better source needed]
In addition to collectible advertising, the company has had notable commercial sponsorships. Among them was Orson Welles's The Campbell Playhouse, which had previously been The Mercury Theatre on the Air. After the program's adaptation of The War of the Worlds became a sensation for accidentally starting a mass panic due to its realism, Campbell's took over as sponsor of the radio theater program in December 1938.
Shutdown of factories
[edit]The shutdown of Campbell's original plant in Camden, New Jersey, plant No. 1, was announced in 1989, with production to end on the night of March 1, 1991; the plant was officially closed the next day, and was demolished on November 1, 1991. Plants in Pocomoke City, Maryland; Crisfield, Maryland; and Smyrna, Tennessee also shut down around that time.[14]
Plant No. 2, originally a tomato-processing plant, shut down in 1980. In the 1950s it had manufactured about 35% of all Campbell's products. Products included pork and beans; tomato juice, V8 vegetable juice, Franco-American spaghetti, macaroni and cheese; and soups (notably: bean with bacon, cream of mushroom, cream of celery, and cream of asparagus.[15]

Due to these closures 2,800 jobs were lost, around 1,000 of those from the Camden plant. Workers received one week's payment for each year of employment as well as six months of paid medical benefits, and half the cost for an additional six months. Salaried workers received one week's pay for each year of employment.[16] Production was moved to plants in Napoleon, Ohio; Paris, Texas; and Maxton, North Carolina.[17][18]
Recent history
[edit]In March 2008, Campbell's Soup was rebranded as Batchelors Condensed Soup in the UK and Erin in Ireland when the license to use the brand name in those countries expired. Premier Foods, headquartered in St. Albans, Hertfordshire, bought the Campbell Soup Company in the UK and Ireland for £450 million ($830 million) in 2006 but was licensed to use the Campbell name only until 2008. Under this agreement, the US-based Campbell Soup Company continued to produce Campbell's Condensed Soup but could not sell the product in the UK for a further five years.[19]
Campbell's continues to be a major part of Camden, regularly participating in charity events[20][21] in the community. In 2009, Campbell's completed the construction of a new and expanded headquarters[22] in the city.

In January 2010, Campbell's Canadian subsidiary began selling a line of soups that are certified by the Islamic Society of North America as being halal (prepared in accordance with Islamic law). Although Campbell does not have any plans to sell its halal soups in the United States, the move drew criticism from anti-Muslim critics in the United States. Several bloggers called for a boycott of the company, but Campbell's spokesman John Faulkner stated at the time that the company did not notice any effect on its sales as a result.[23]
In November 2007, Campbell's Soup sold Godiva to Yildiz Holding.
In July 2011, Campbell's Soup decided to once again sell its product in the UK. Symingtons began manufacturing the brand under license. The new lineup consisted of twelve cup soups, five simmer soups designed to be cooked in a pot of water, four savory rice lines as well as four savory pasta and sauce packets. The items were not sold in cans but instead in packets and boxes. Later in 2011, the canned varieties also returned to supermarket shelves with refreshed labels and new lines.[24]
In 2012, Campbell announced plans to buy Bolthouse Farms, a maker of juices, salad dressings, and baby carrots, for $1.55 billion. Analysts said it was an attempt to reach younger, more affluent consumers.[25]
Since 2012, Campbell Soup has been focused on updating their image and digital marketing to increase visibility among younger generations.
In June 2013, Campbell acquired the Danish multinational baked goods company Kelsen Group for an undisclosed amount.[26] Kelsen has an 85-country distribution network and is seen as providing Campbell with opportunities for international expansion, particularly into China and other Asian markets.[26]
In June 2015, Campbell Soup acquired salsa maker Garden Fresh Gourmet for $231 million as it looked to expand into the fresh and organic packaged foods business.[27]
In December 2017, Campbell's completed the acquisition[28] of Pacific Foods of Oregon, LLC[29] for $700 million and announced the agreement to acquire the snack company Snyder's-Lance for $4.87 billion in cash.[30] The latter deal is the largest in the company's history.[31]
In January 2018, Campbell's announced the closure of their only Canadian factory, in Toronto. Production shifted to three existing facilities in the United States, and 380 jobs were lost as a result.[32]

Denise Morrison served as the company's president and CEO from 2011 through 2018.[33]
On December 21, 2018, Mark Clouse, former CEO of Pinnacle Foods, was announced as Campbell's CEO effective January 22, 2019.[34]
Having sold over $450 million a year worth of Chunky Soup from 2004 to 2017, Campbell's asked for a trademark on "Chunky", which was approved in 2019.[35]
In July 2019, Campbell's agreed to sell its stake in the Kelsen Group for $300 million to a subsidiary of Ferrero SpA, with the transfer to be completed in 2020.[36] Campbell's also divested Arnott's Biscuits to KKR for $2.2 billion at the same time.
In August 2023, it was announced that Campbell's had acquired the Louisville, Colorado-headquartered food manufacturer Sovos Brands for $2.7 billion.[37]
On August 1, 2024, Campbell's announced that it will transfer its stock listing from the NYSE to the NASDAQ Global Select Market starting on August 16 at the market close. Trading on Nasdaq began on August 19, 2024.[38]
Pop art
[edit]In 1962, artist Andy Warhol incorporated the familiar look of the Campbell's soup can with a series of pop art silkscreens, a theme he would return to off and on through the 1960s and 1970s. The first batch in 1962 were a series of 32 canvases. At first, the cans were accurate representations of actual Campbell's cans, but as his series progressed, they became more surrealistic, with Warhol experimenting with negative-reversed color schemes and other varied techniques (many of these which would be used on other Warhol paintings of the period, such as his celebrity silkscreens of the 1960s). The silkscreens themselves have become iconic pieces of pop art, with one in particular, Small Torn Campbell Soup Can (Pepper Pot) (1962), commanding a price of $11.8 million at auction in 2006.[39]
Slogans
[edit]- Mmm Mmm Good (1935–present—their predominantly used slogan)[40]
- Give Me The Campbell Life (1969–75)
- Soup Is Good Food (1975–c. 1982)
- Never underestimate the power of soup! (1990s)
- Possibilities (2005–2009)
- So Many Many Reasons It's So Mmm Mmm Good (2009–2010)
- It's Amazing What Soup Can Do! (2010–present)[41]
- Made for real, Real life (2015–present)
Health issues
[edit]Many canned soups, including Campbell's condensed and chunky varieties, contain relatively high quantities of sodium and thus are not desirable for those on low-sodium diets. However, Campbell's Chunky, Healthy Request and other soups, as well as their V-8 and Tomato juices, are claimed by Campbell's to contain reduced sodium levels.[42]
In the fall of 2007, Campbell's was awarded a Certificate of Excellence from Blood Pressure Canada for their efforts in lowering sodium levels.[43]
By the fall of 2009, Campbell's claimed it had lowered the sodium content in 50% of its soups range.[44] In March 2010, this claim was challenged; ABC News reported that the low-sodium variety of Campbell soup in fact contained the same amount of sodium as the regular variety, and that Campbell's Healthy Request soup contained more fat than the regular variety.[45] In July 2011, citing sinking sales, the company increased the salt content of its products again.[46]
In December 2009, Consumer Reports found that major canned food companies including Campbell's Soup were producing tinned products with bisphenol A (BPA) levels over 100 ppb in some cases;[47] the testing revealed that just one serving of canned food would exceed an expert's recommendation for daily exposure (0.2 micrograms per kg body weight per day).[47]
GMO
[edit]Throughout 2012, Campbell's contributed $500,000 to a $46 million[48] political campaign known as "the Coalition Against the Costly Food Labeling Proposition, sponsored by farmers and food producers".[49] This organization was set up to oppose a citizens' initiative, known as Proposition 37, demanding mandatory labeling of foods containing genetically modified ingredients sold in California.
In January 2016, the company decided to support mandatory labeling and announced they would label their products that contained GMO additives.[50]

[edit]Campbell's owns numerous brands that it markets worldwide. Among these are the following:[51]
