The elevation of Janda Lukin to chief growth officer and Elizabeth Duggan to president of its snacks division are more than just executive moves at Campbell’s Company — they represent a continued effort to transform the iconic Camden-based company into a modern food manufacturer that can continually generate growth while competing with all food companies in all areas.
Lukin, who joined the company in 2016 after more than a decade with Mondelez International, is credited with helping to return growth to the soup business while growing its snacks division.
Duggan, who joined Campbell’s in 2019, will oversee the long-term growth and margin expansion of the snacks division. She most recently served as the senior vice president and general manager of Campbell’s Company of Canada.
Both announcements were applauded by Mick Beekhuizen, who was elevated to CEO on Feb. 1.
“Elizabeth and Janda have each played pivotal roles in transforming Campbell’s over the last several years,” Beekhuizen said. “They are the right leaders to drive our strategy and take our performance to the next level.”
While Campbell’s has a legacy name and a strong portfolio, it has increasingly faced challenges in the sector. Attempts to diversify include a $2.7 billion acquisition of Rao’s in March of 2024.
