Global snacking and convenience foods major Kellanova reported a strong sales performance in FY25, driven largely by robust demand across its snacks and nutrition portfolio, reinforcing the company’s strategy to focus on high-growth, consumer-centric categories.
In its FY25 performance update, Kellanova said growth was led by popular snack brands and expanding nutrition offerings, supported by product innovation, premiumisation and wider penetration across key markets. Categories such as ready-to-eat snacks, better-for-you options, and fortified nutrition products witnessed sustained consumer traction amid evolving eating habits and rising demand for convenient yet nutritious food choices.
The company benefited from strong brand equity in its core snacking segments, with increased household penetration and repeat purchases contributing to volume growth. Innovation played a crucial role, with Kellanova launching new flavours, formats and nutrition-forward variants tailored to regional tastes and health preferences. Strategic pricing actions and disciplined cost management further supported topline growth despite inflationary pressures in raw materials and logistics during the year.
Kellanova’s nutrition segment showed particular momentum, reflecting global trends toward protein-rich, fortified and functional foods. Consumers increasingly sought products that balance taste with health benefits, a shift that worked in favour of the company’s diversified portfolio. Emerging markets also contributed meaningfully, supported by improved distribution reach and focused marketing investments.
Regionally, performance was supported by steady growth in developing markets, while mature markets showed resilience due to brand-led demand and innovation-led differentiation. The company continued to invest in supply chain efficiencies and digital capabilities to enhance agility and service levels.
Commenting on the performance, Kellanova highlighted that its focus on snacking occasions, nutrition-led innovation and disciplined execution remains central to its long-term growth strategy. Looking ahead, the company expects continued momentum in FY26, supported by ongoing investments in product development, sustainability initiatives and expansion in high-potential categories.
With consumers increasingly gravitating toward convenient, tasty and nutritious food options, Kellanova’s strong FY25 performance underscores the growing importance of snacks and nutrition as key growth engines in the global packaged food industry.
