The company's core business revolves around manufacturing, selling, and distributing a diverse portfolio of shelf-stable and frozen food and household products. Its mission is to acquire and invest in established food brands, enhancing their relevance for consumers and customers through a disciplined acquisition strategy.

B&G Foods manages a portfolio of over 50 trusted brands, including well-known names such as Crisco, Cream of Wheat, Ortega, Dash, Spice Islands, Weber, B&M, Polaner, Underwood, Maple Grove Farms, Victoria, Clabber Girl, College Inn, and Kitchen Basics.

Kenneth C. "Casey" Keller has served as the President and CEO since June 2021, leading the company's strategic direction. In recent news, B&G Foods has been actively evolving its brand portfolio, including the acquisition of College Inn and Kitchen Basics broth businesses in January 2026, and the divestiture of certain Green Giant, Le Sueur, Don Pepino, and Sclafani brands in 2025 and 2026. The company reported its Q1 2026 financial results, with revenues slightly down but exceeding analyst expectations. In May 2026, B&G Foods announced a dividend cut to retain cash for debt repayment and other business needs, a move that impacted its stock price and led to investor investigations. The company also closed a $475 million private offering of senior notes in June 2026, as it continues to focus on reducing debt and improving profit margins.
