Kraft Heinz pivots to volume-led growth with $700M incremental investment; consumption improving but FY25 revenue down 3.5% YoY

Kraft Heinz is deploying $700 million in incremental marketing and innovation investment across FY2026 to reverse consumption declines and stabilize market share, with early momentum evident in Heinz condiments (+3% YoY), Capri Sun Hydrate, and PowerMac & Cheese. Underlying consumption declined 2.5% in Q2 2026 but is improving sequentially—management targets Q4 as the strongest consumption quarter. However, FY2025 consolidated revenue declined 3.5% year-over-year to $24.94B, establishing the baseline from which current-period improvements must be measured. The company expects 4–5% input cost inflation in 2027, which it intends to offset through productivity gains while maintaining margin improvement.
