Ketchup maker Kraft Heinz investing $3 billion upgrading U.S. manufacturing: Reuters
- Kraft Heinz announced a $3 billion investment to upgrade its U.S. Factories, marking its largest plant upgrade in a decade.

- Pedro Navio, Kraft Heinz's North America president, explained in a Reuters interview that the investment is motivated not only by improving operational efficiency or addressing tariff-related issues but also by the company's long-term production goals.
- This investment is intended to help Kraft Heinz maintain its market position and ensure sustainable food production amid economic challenges and tariff impacts.
