Campbell Soup Company Pension Plan
The Campbell Soup Company Retirement & Pension Plan was established in 1938 to deliver retirement income to eligible salaried and non-union hourly workers. Contributions come solely from the company. Bennett Dorrance, a descendant of the founder and major shareholder of the sponsor, has no direct role in plan governance. The plan allocates across global real estate through REITs, property funds and limited partnerships. It also maintains commodity exposure via hedge funds and derivatives. Confirmed holdings include a position in Rigetti Computing and an interest in Acre Venture Partners Fund I, an AgTech vehicle. Geographic reach covers the United States and other developed markets. State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as trustee and custodian. Transamerica Retirement Solutions acts as recordkeeper. November 2024: The Campbell's Company held its annual shareholder meeting virtually, covering governance and compensation matters that affect plan oversight. The plan operates as a single-sponsor defined-benefit vehicle with no external LP commitments or co-investment club. Governance flows through an administrative committee rather than a dedicated CIO function.
