Campbell's recipe for higher profit: reheat soup sales
Article Abstract:
Campbell's soups hold about 80% of the U.S. market share, but a 5% drop during fiscal third quarter is the wrong direction for sales. The firm has plans, though, to rejuvenate sales in the right direction. In the plans are soup in resealable plastic bottles; single-serving, microwaveable soup; a gourmet soup-in-a-pouch; and dispensing soup from machines.
