Struggling Kraft Heinz sells dairy brands to Lactalis
Kraft Heinz said Tuesday that it is selling its natural cheese business โ including its Cracker Barrel and Breakstoneโs brands โ to French dairy company Lactalis Group as part of a larger restructuring. Kraft Heinz, however, will keep its Philadelphia cream cheese brand, Kraft singles and the Velveeta and Cheez Whiz brands. Kraft Heinz โ formed in a 2015 merger โ has been struggling as consumers increasingly seek fresh, minimally processed foods. Kraft Heinz CEO Miguel Patricio said the sale of the natural cheese brands is an example of that portfolio management. Lactalis Group โ whose brands include President specialty cheese and Stonyfield Organic yogurt โ said the Kraft Heinz brands are a good strategic fit.
