J.M. Smucker Company Research Report

Continued acquisitions and product innovations spurs growth of household name J.M Smucker, maker of Smuckers, as the company announces its fiscal 2013 third quarter results.  According to Richard K. Smucker, Chief Executive Officer and Director, the recent holiday season has had them positioned for growth in many of their categories with a 6% increase in net sales.Pundits still see a solid performance for the company this 2013. Despite setbacks such as the canister constraint in the Retail Coffee segment, it had posed minimum impact due to the strong performance of their K-Cups, Café Bustelo, and Pilon brands. Their Jif and Smucker brands also added to a 4% increase in Consumer Food net sales, while last year's food service acquisition also contributed in sales growth in the International, Foodservice and Natural Foods segment.
