Uncrustables Are on a Seemingly Unstoppable Run to $1 Billion in Sales

Sales of the Uncrustables sandwich continued to grow, despite soft peanut butter and jam sales in the most recent quarter, The J.M. Smucker Co. said. The company is poised to achieve its goal of hitting more than $1 billion in Uncrustables sales in the current fiscal year, executives said. J.M. Smucker aims to keep the momentum going with limited editions of a product known to be eaten by musicians and athletes such as Travis haven't lost their edge. Despite the fact that making making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches isn't particularly hard, Americans continue to opt for the shortcut offered by The J.M. Smucker Co. (SJM). Sales of Jif peanut butter and Smucker's jam fell year-over-year in the last quarter, while sales of the Uncrustables sandwich rose, CEO Mark Smucker said on a conference call Tuesday. Uncrustables sales leaped 15% year-over-year in fiscal year 2025, hitting $920 million, according to company executives. The sandwich now accounts for more than a tenth of annual sales at J.M. Smucker, which also sells pet food along with Folgers and Café Bustelo coffee. Hitting $1 billion in annual sales of the sandwich has been part of the company's agenda since at least 2021, when Uncrustables sales were about half that amount. Now, the mark is within striking distance. The company wants to continue building momentum with new riffs on the PB&J, robust marketing and broader distribution, Mark Smucker said at a conference in March. 'We definitely think there's growth beyond … $1 billion,' said Smucker, according to a transcript made available by AlphaSense. 'And we've talked about how long it took us to figure out how to make these things in a profitable and mass-produced high-quality way. And now that we're doing that, we can really fire on all cylinders and drive the growth.' Demand for Uncrustables has been so strong that J.M. Smucker opened a $1.1 billion plant in Alabama last year to ramp up production. And appetite for the sandwiches is expected to withstand price increases, executives said: J.M. Smucker recently raised its list price for Uncrustables for the first time in three years, Smucker said on the earnings call. (The company's 2026 forecast is based on a low-single-digit percent price bump, CFO Tucker Marshall said.) The product has long benefited from high-profile fans—from musicians like Drake to sports icons, such as Travis Kelce, according to news reports. Athletes say the snack has enough calories and protein to fuel their performance. Affinity for the sandwich has spread beyond sports fields and school cafeterias to corporate break rooms, according to a 2023 Wall Street Journal article. The Ohio-based company hopes to generate still more hype with Uncrustables fillings that are available for a limited time, Mark Smucker said on the earnings call. We have 'begun launching a regular cadence of limited edition flavors starting this summer with a new peanut butter and mixer berry spread variety,' he said. J.M. Smucker shares fell nearly 16% Tuesday after it missed fourth-quarter sales estimates and released an outlook that was more cautious than analysts expected.

India's granaries overflow as rice stocks hit record, wheat surges

By Rajendra Jadhav MUMBAI (Reuters) -India's rice stocks in government warehouses rose 18% from a year ago to a record high for the start of June, while wheat stocks have hit their highest level in four years on higher procurement from farmers, official data showed on Wednesday. Record rice stocks will help the world's biggest exporter increase shipments, while an improvement in wheat inventories will help the federal government tame any price spikes later this year by increasing open market sales. State reserves of rice, including unmilled paddy, totalled a record 59.5 million metric tons as of June 1, far exceeding the government's target of 13.5 million tons for July 1. Wheat stocks stood at 36.9 million tons on June 1, well above the government's target of 27.6 million tons, the data showed. "Rice stocks have piled up way too much. The government really needs to bring them down before the next buying season kicks off in October," said a New Delhi-based dealer at a global trading firm. India, which accounts for around 40% of global rice exports, removed the last of its export curbs on the grain in March 2025, with the initial restrictions having been imposed in 2022. Wheat stocks have risen to a comfortable position mainly because of higher procurement, which will help New Delhi sell more wheat to bulk consumers during the lean supply season, said a Mumbai-based dealer. The government has so far brought 30 million tons of wheat from farmers, the most in four years, according to data compiled by Food Corporation of India (FCI). Disappointing harvests in the past three years and lower purchases by the FCI had pushed up prices of the staple grain and raised expectations that India may be forced to import wheat for the first time in seven years. But the buildup in stocks this year means the country should be able to meet domestic demand without imports.

US, China reach deal to ease export curbs, keep tariff truce alive

US and Chinese officials said on Tuesday they had agreed on a framework to get their trade truce back on track and remove China's export restrictions on rare earths while offering little sign of a durable resolution to longstanding trade tensions. At the end of two days of intense negotiations in London, US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told reporters the framework deal puts 'meat on the bones' of an agreement reached last month in Geneva to ease bilateral retaliatory tariffs that had reached crushing triple-digit levels. But the Geneva deal had faltered over China's continued curbs on critical minerals exports, prompting the Trump administration to respond with export controls of its own preventing shipments of semiconductor design software, aircraft and other goods to China. 5 Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng, right, shakes hands with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent before their meeting to discuss China-US trade, in London, Monday, June 9, 2025. AP Lutnick said the agreement reached in London would remove restrictions on Chinese exports of rare earth minerals and magnets and some of the recent US export restrictions 'in a balanced way', but did not provide details after the talks concluded around midnight London time. 'We have reached a framework to implement the Geneva consensus and the call between the two presidents,' Lutnick said, adding that both sides will now return to present the framework to their respective presidents for approvals. 'And if that is approved, we will then implement the framework,' he said. In a separate briefing, China's Vice Commerce Minister Li Chenggang also said a trade framework had been reached in principle that would be taken back to US and Chinese leaders. US President Donald Trump's shifting tariff policies have roiled global markets, sparked congestion and confusion in major ports, and cost companies tens of billions of dollars in lost sales and higher costs. The World Bank on Tuesday slashed its global growth forecast for 2025 by four-tenths of a percentage point to 2.3%, saying higher tariffs and heightened uncertainty posed a 'significant headwind' for nearly all economies. 5 Trucks loaded with containers move through a container terminal port in Shanghai, China, Monday, June 9, 2025. AP The deal may keep the Geneva agreement from unravelling over duelling export controls, but does little to resolve deep differences over Trump's unilateral tariffs and longstanding US complaints about China's state-led, export-driven economic model. The two sides left Geneva with fundamentally different views of the terms of that agreement and needed to be more specific on required actions, said Josh Lipsky, senior director of the Atlantic Council's GeoEconomics Center in Washington. 'They are back to square one but that's much better than square zero,' Lipsky added. The two sides have until August 10 to negotiate a more comprehensive agreement to ease trade tensions, or tariff rates will snap back from about 30% to 145% on the US side and from 10% to 125% on the Chinese side. 5 President Donald Trump delivers remarks on tariffs in the Rose Garden at the White House in Washington, DC, on April 2, 2025. REUTERS MARKETS CAUTIOUS Global stocks have recovered their hefty losses after Trump's April 'Liberation Day' tariff announcement and are now near record highs. Investors burned by earlier turmoil offered a cautious response to the deal and MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.57%. 'The devil will be in the details, but the lack of reaction suggests this outcome was fully expected,' said Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone in Melbourne. 'The details matter, especially around the degree of rare earths bound for the US, and the subsequent freedom for US-produced chips to head east, but for now as long as the headlines of talks between the two parties remain constructive, risk assets should remain supported.' Signs of the curbs loosening surfaced in China, as several Shenzhen-listed rare earth magnet firms, including Innuovo Technology and Beijing Zhong Ke San Huan said they have obtained export licenses from Chinese authorities. 5 Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng leaves Lancaster House, on the second day scheduled for trade talks between the US and China, in London, Britain, on June 10, 2025. REUTERS China holds a near-monopoly on rare earth magnets, a crucial component in electric vehicle motors, and its decision in April to suspend exports of a wide range of critical minerals and magnets upended global supply chains. In May, the US responded by halting shipments of semiconductor design software and chemicals and aviation equipment, revoking export licences that had been previously issued. CHINA EXPORTS PLUNGED A resolution to the trade war may require policy adjustments from all countries to treat financial imbalances or otherwise greatly risk mutual economic damage, European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde said on a rare visit to Beijing on Wednesday. Customs data published on Monday showed that China's overall exports to the US plunged 34.5% in May, the sharpest drop since the outbreak of the COVID pandemic. 5 US Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick answers questions from the media as he returns to Lancaster House, on the second day scheduled for trade talks between the US and China, in London, Britain, on June 10, 2025. REUTERS While the impact on US inflation and its jobs market has so far been muted, tariffs have hammered US business and household confidence and the dollar remains under pressure. Beijing-based lawyer Peter Wu, 28, saw the talks as 'a good signal' even if details were not fully negotiated. 'I feel that fighting a trade war in the context of global integration is a lose-lose situation for both sides. I naturally hope that my motherland will be better,' he said. China, Mexico, the European Union, Japan, Canada and many airlines and aerospace companies worldwide urged the Trump administration not to impose new national security tariffs on imported commercial planes and parts, according to documents released Tuesday. Just after the framework deal was announced, a US appeals court allowed Trump's most sweeping tariffs to stay in effect while it reviews a lower court decision blocking them on grounds that they exceeded Trump's legal authority by imposing them. The decision keeps alive a key pressure point on China, Trump's currently suspended 34% 'reciprocal' duties that had prompted swift tariff escalation.
