Competition and Pricing Pressure

Kraft Heinz Co · 2026-08-05 · Importance 37 · Surprise 32

Kraft Heinz raised prices across all segments to address higher input costs and inflationary pressures, including in North American refreshment beverages and coffee and in certain Emerging Markets countries. Pricing actions helped offset costs but contributed to unfavorable volume/mix and can negatively affect market share. In North America, higher pricing of 1.1 percentage points was insufficient to offset a 3.8-point volume/mix decline in the quarter, while Emerging Markets achieved 4.5 points of pricing and 4.0 points of favorable volume/mix.
