One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

Frequently asked questions

Soups and Processed Foods

Campbell Soup Company, more often than not referred to simply as Campbell’s, is an American company producing a wide array of different processed foods. The company is most known for its famous canned soup products, but it also produces various canned foods, beverages, snacks, and more. Campbell’s owns and operates several smaller subsidiaries such as Pepperidge Farm, V8 Juice, Swanson, and several others. The company is headquartered in Camden, New Jersey and its shares are traded on the NYSE.

Glass Jars and Pop Art

The Campbell Soup Company was founded in 1869 by Joseph A. Campbell and Abraham Anderson in Camden, New Jersey. Originally started as a producer of canned tomatoes, vegetables, jellies, soups, and minced meats, the company's first canned soup was introduced in 1895. Over the years, Campbell's expanded its product line to include a wide variety of soups and other food products, and made several acquisitions of other companies within the processed food industry. In the 1960s, artist Andy Warhol used the soup can as the subject for a series of artworks, drawing attention to the relationship between consumer goods and art. His depiction of the Campbell's can is famous around the world and one of the most renowned examples of pop art.

The Soups

Campbell’s soups are its most iconic products and have become staples in many consumer’s pantries. Over the years, the product line has expanded significantly, offering a diverse array of flavors and styles. Classic varieties like Tomato, Chicken Noodle, and Cream of Mushroom remain popular, while newer lines such as the Chunky series offer heartier options with more pronounced ingredients. Many of Campbell's soups are designed to be heated and consumed directly from the can, but they also serve as foundational ingredients in numerous recipes, from casseroles to sauces.

Other Products

While soups are still a large part of the company’s DNA, they also produce a number of other products and foods. These include canned goods outside its portfolio of soups, various snacks, beverages, and more. Its subsidiaries include Pepperidge Farm, V8 Juice, Swanson, and several others. When looking at peers one finds names such as Unilever, General Mills, Kraft-Heinz, and several others.
