CoverStory: Top 50 Food Packagers Our Top 50 Food Packagers list uses sources that include annual com- pany reports, as well as self-reported data from Dun & Bradstreet, news reports, company websites and direct company contacts. Sales are based on calendar year 2012 or the most recent fiscal year that conforms to that timeframe. We used XE, the online currency counter (www.xe.com), where necessary. We have also drilled down to the best of our abilities using all available resources to separate out food revenue from beverages and other segment revenue. *= estimate Company 2012 Total Revenues Chief Packaging Officer, Rank Headquarters (in $ Billions) Title Key Brands Nestlé SA 56.60 Anne Roulin, Hot Pockets, Purina, Dreyer’s, Stouffer’s, 1 Vevey, Switzerland Global Head of Package and Design Nestlé, Lean Cuisine, Gerber PepsiCo Inc. 33.40 Robert Lewis,Senior Vice President Global Lay's, Quaker, Doritos, Ruffles, Muller, Fritos 2 Purchase, NY Packaging & Engineering Technology Tyson Foods Inc. 33.30 Steven Morris,Director of Tyson, Wright 3 Springdale, AR Corporate Package Innovation Mars Inc. 30.00* Steve Ginsberg, Director of Design M&M's, Snickers, Twix, Uncle Ben's, 4 McLean, VA Pedigree, Whiskas, Dove, Extra, Orbit Mondeléz International 29.00 Jean Spence,Executive Vice President LU, Nabisco, Cadbury, Milka, Oreo, Trident, Ritz 5 Deerfield, IL of Research, Development & Quality Unilever 21.95 Dennis Furniss, Hellmann's, Knorr, Flora, Wish-Bone, Country 6 London, U.K. Vice President of Global Design Crock, Bertolli, Magnum Ben & Jerry's Groupe Danone 20.42 Jean-Philippe Paré,General Director, Activia, Actimel/DanActive, Dannon, Danone, 7 Paris, France Research & Development Kefir, Stonyfield Farm JBS USA (unit of Grupo JBS-Friboi) 19.78 Tim Thomas, Head of Procurement Swift Angus Select, Swift Premium Black 8 Greeley, CO Angus, Friboi Kraft Foods Group 18.34 Perfecto Perales, Kraft,Oscar Mayer, Velveeta 9 Northfield, IL Senior Director, Package & Research General Mills Inc. 16.70 Elizabeth Nientimp, Cheerios, Wheaties, Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, 10 Minneapolis, MN Director of Brand Design Yoplait, Green Giant, Progresso, Nature Valley 1 FOOD& BEVERAGE PACKAGING JUNE/JULY 2 0 1 3 WWW .
