Heinz And Kraft Agree To Merge With Warren Buffett's Help
The Brazilian private equity firm 3G, which bought Heinz in 2013, will add cheese, coffee, and Jell-O to its pantry.
Mike Mozart / Via flic.kr
Kraft Foods Group’s short history as an independent company is to come to a close after it agreed Wednesday morning merge with Heinz, which itself was bought by Brazilian private equity firm 3G two years ago.
Heinz’s shareholders, Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway and 3G, will own 51% of the company, which will trade publicly, and Kraft shareholders will get 49% of the company. Kraft shareholders will also get a $16.50-per-share — about $10 billion — special dividend to Kraft shareholders, funded by 3G and Berkshire Hathaway.
Kraft’s brands include its eponymous cheese, Oscar Meyer, Maxwell House, Capri Sun, and Jell-O.
Combined, the companies said, the Pittsburgh-and-Chicago-suburbs-based food behemoths will have $28 billion in annual revenues. It will be the world’s fifth-largest food and beverage company in the world and the third largest in the United States. The food giant would be worth around $100 billion when including the companies’ debt.
"I am delighted to play a part in bringing these two winning companies and their iconic brands together," Buffett, the chair of Berkshire Hathaway, said in a statement. "This is my kind of transaction, uniting two world-class organizations and delivering shareholder value. I’m excited by the opportunities for what this new combined organization will achieve."
Kraft had $18 billion in revenue this past year, about flat from the year before, and just over $1 billion in profits. Before deal talks were reported by the Wall Street Journal Tuesday evening, Kraft’s market capitalization was about $37 billion at a price of $61.33. In pre-market trading, Kraft’s stock is trading up to $81.55, bumping up its value to $48 billion.
The deal adds another massive consumer brand to the portfolio of 3G Capital, the private equity firm founded by Brazilian billionaire and former professional tennis player Jorge Paulo Lemann, once again with funding from his friend Buffett. 3G bought Heinz with Buffett’s assistance in 2013, the firm also acquired Burger King for $4 billion in 2010.
Burger King — run by former 3G partner Daniel Schwartz and 70% owned by the firm — itself acquired Canadian coffee-and-donuts company Tim Hortons last year. Lemann and his partners also own a controlling stake of Anheuser-Busch InBev after the $52 billion merger of Inbev and Anheuser-Busch.
"We expect to partner with 3G in more activities. Sometimes our participation will only involve a financing role, as was the case in the recent acquisition of Tim Hortons by Burger King," Buffett said in his annual letter to shareholders published earlier this month. "Our favored arrangement, however, will usually be to link up as a permanent equity partner (who, in some cases, contributes to the financing of the deal as well). Whatever the structure, we feel good when working with Jorge Paulo."
Kraft CEO John Cahill took over from Tony Vernon at the end of last year. Cahill, previously a partner at the private equity fund Ripplewood, will become vice chair of the new company. Heinz CEO Bernando Hees will be chief executive. Kraft will maintain its quarterly dividend, which is right now at $.55 per share and the companies said it is expected to continue to rise.
Cahill said on a call with analyst that Alex Behring, Heinz’s chairman and a partner at 3G Capital, first approached him “at the very end of January,” and that the discussions “picked up steam in second half of February.”
Hees came from Burger King, another iconic American food company bought by 3G, and instituted an extensive cost-cutting program that has become the private equity firm’s signature. A round of “zero-based budgeting” — where all costs are assumed to be at zero and have to be rejustified — will probably be implemented at Kraft. The companies said that they expect $1.5 billion in annual cost savings by the end of 2017.
Cahill said that Kraft will have a “much leaner organization” and “much better decision making” as Heinz managers come into Kraft. Cahill said Kraft had its own plan to ramp up revenues and hold down costs, but “we have a transaction now that brings in management that can make this happen deeper and faster.”
"With transformational changes enacted over the last two years, Heinz is now the most profitable company in the food industry," Alex Behring, the chairman of Heinz and a managing partner at 3G, said in a call with analysts to discuss the deal. Behring will be the chair of the combined company.
"Our combined brands and businesses mean increased scale and relevance both in the U.S. and internationally," Behring said in a statement. "We have the utmost respect for the Kraft business and its employees, and greatly look forward to working together as we integrate the two companies."
"I’m not embarrassed to admit that Heinz is run far better under Alex Behring, Chairman, and Bernardo Hees, CEO, than would be the case if I were in charge," Buffett said in his letter. "They hold themselves to extraordinarily high performance standards and are never satisfied, even when their results far exceed those of competitors. We expect to partner with 3G in more activities."
Kraft itself is the product of decades of buyouts and spin-offs. Its parent company was bought by tobacco company Phillip Morris in 1988 for $13 billion and combined with General Foods, which had Oscar Meyer, Jell-O, and Kool-Aid. Kraft was then combined again with another food conglomerate when Phillip Morris bought what was remaining of Nabisco (which went through its own tobacco buyout and spin-off) in 2000.
In 2001, Phillip Morris sold some of what was now Kraft Foods to the public, then spun it off entirely in 2007. Kraft split off again in 2012, forming Kraft Foods and renaming the legacy company Mondelez International, which hung onto brands such as Ritz, Oreos, Triscuit, Wheat Thins, and Trident.

Farewell, Queues: Starbucks Introduces Delivery, Mobile Ordering
In an interview with BuzzFeed News, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz discussed two new services of supreme importance for customers sick of waiting in line for their lattes.

Starbucks is launching two new services of supreme importance for customers sick of waiting in line for their lattes: First up, mobile ordering and payment will be rolled out nationwide this year, meaning the only thing users of the Starbucks mobile app will have to do in the store is walk to the front of the line and pick up their coffee.
And second, the company has announced details of its long-awaited delivery service, which will roll out in a limited way this year in Seattle and New York City.
"It is mind-boggling to me how many of our customers want Starbucks delivered, even when there is a Starbucks in the lobby of their building," CEO Howard Schultz told BuzzFeed News in an interview. "I think it’s going to be wildly successful, we’ve figured out how to do it, and it is going to create jobs, no question."
The delivery service will be pretty limited in its scope, at least in 2015. The company says it will roll out a “Green Apron” delivery service for some office buildings in New York, where baristas from Starbucks outlets nearby (as Schultz mentioned, there are plenty of office towers with a Starbucks inside the building) will deliver directly to office workers.
And in Seattle, it will team up with Postmates, an on-demand delivery startup that connects users with a network of independent delivery people, much like Uber lets users hail a ride its network of independent drivers. “A Postmate is like a friend who can stop by a restaurant or store,” is how the company describes it.
"Working together, we will enable Starbucks customers to order their favorite Starbucks products and have it delivered to them without leaving their home or office," Postmates said in an announcement today.
Both these delivery pilots will begin in the second half of 2015, Starbucks said.
But for the majority of customers who aren’t in Seattle or a select few New York office towers, mobile ordering and payment will be the more important way Starbucks is eliminating the queue this year.
The company’s app is already incredibly popular, with eight million purchases a week being made through the system. “We have the most successful mobile retail transaction app in the world,” Schultz told BuzzFeed news. “Almost 18% of tender right now is on the Starbucks mobile app.”
Once the mobile ordering and payment system is rolled out—the company says it will be done nationwide this year—, users will be able to key in their order and pay via the app, before heading to the store. On arrival, all they will need to do is pick it up.
The service, particularly when combined with delivery, turns Starbucks into one more company chasing the instant-gratification trend that has driven the success of so many mobile and web-based businesses. Press a button, get the thing you want, no cash changing hands, minimal human interaction.
It has already reshaped the way we order food for delivery and hail a cab, and Schultz expects it to reshape his business too. “This is just the beginning,” he told BuzzFeed News, “and I would say on the macro level, you can’t be in any industry today, let alone a consumer business, and not integrate the business through the lens of seamless technology.”

McDonald's Workers Complain Of Widespread Burns And Injuries
Workers at McDonald’s stores across the country have filed 28 complaints with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration alleging hazardous working conditions. A class action lawsuit could come next.
Nacho Doce / Reuters
Nearly 30 McDonald’s employees in stores across 19 cities have filed complaints with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration that allege the fast food giant creates a hazardous working environment that has led to widespread burns and other injuries to employees.
Organized by the Fight for $15 Campaign to increase employee wages and improve working conditions for fast food employees, the complaints could culminate in a class action lawsuit against McDonald’s if an OSHA investigation and the Department of Labor finds widespread wrongdoing.
The announcement of the complaints Monday was accompanied by results of a survey of fast food workers, which highlighted some pretty grim findings on the state of employee safety at fast food restaurants across the U.S. The survey, conducted by Hart Research Associates on behalf of worker safety nonprofit the National Council for Occupational Safety and Health, found that 78% of fast food industry workers have been burned on the job in the last year, and that 58% have been burned multiple times in the same timeframe.
At McDonald’s stores in particular, the survey findings and worker complaints allege burns and other injuries at McDonald’s were due to pressure by management to work faster than is safe for employees, and insufficient numbers of employees scheduled during a shift to handle the workload, as well as broken or damaged equipment in the workplace. Moreover, managers at McDonald’s are alleged to have told employees to treat their burns with a food condiment, such as mayonnaise, mustard, or ketchup, in order to quickly get back on the job.
"Fast food workers are like everyone else, they come to work to earn a living and to provide for their families," said Mary Vogel, executive director of the National Council for Occupational Safety and Health, on a press call about the OSHA complaints and survey findings. "They don’t come to work to get injured, they don’t come to work to get burned, and they certainly don’t come to work to be handed a packet of mayonnaise or mustard when they do get burned."
The Council and Fight for $15 are also calling on the Department of Labor to investigate, but in the meantime, OSHA will have 10 days to investigate and, depending on its findings, the employees will then have six months to file a class action lawsuit.
In response, a McDonald’s representative told BuzzFeed News that the company will look into the matters.
"McDonald’s and its independent franchisees are committed to providing safe working conditions for employees in the 14,000 McDonald’s Brand U.S. restaurants," the representative said. "We will review these allegations. It is important to note that these complaints are part of a larger strategy orchestrated by activists targeting our brand and designed to generate media coverage."
The Fight For 15 campaign is backed by the Service Employees International Union and assisted by BerlinRosen, a public relations firm that lists Bill de Blasio’s election as Mayor of New York as one of its success stories. Amid a flurry of nationwide organizing among fast food workers and others, McDonald’s has taken a procession of negative hits, including protests in front of its restaurants, and the publication of embarrassing content from an internal advice website for employees, which the company subsequently took down. The site’s advice for the company’s low-wage workers included guidelines on how much to tip a pool cleaner, and recommendations to avoid eating too much fast food.
But the organizing drive has also been reflected in lawsuits that could cause real problems for the company. A complaint about civil rights violations by McDonald’s franchisees has attracted the support of the National Labor Relations Board, and could establish a game-changing precedent that the burger giant can be considered a “joint employer” of the workers hired by its franchise owners. A spokesperson for the International Franchise association described the complaint as the “nightmare before Christmas” in a call with reporters last December.

The Inventor Of The Keurig Says He Feels Guilty For Creating It
John Sylvan said he doesn’t even own one of his very creations because they are “kind of expensive to use.”

The inventor of the Keurig now says he feels guilty for creating the coffee-making device because it creates a ton of waste.
In an interview with The Atlantic published Monday, John Sylvan said that he feels he created a monster.
"I feel bad sometimes that I ever did it," Sylvan said.
Sylvan created the Keurig in 1992 with his college roommate Peter Dragone. He said he believed they would only be used in offices.
He told The Atlantic he was pretty sure the device, which allows the user to brew a single cup of coffee in seconds by inserting a pod into a machine, would be a hit.
"It’s like a cigarette for coffee, a single-serve delivery mechanism for an addictive substance," he said.
Sylvan sold his share of the company in 1997 for $50,000. However, he told The Atlantic he now regrets being a part of it at all, because the pods are bad for the environment.
"No matter what they say about recycling, those things will never be recyclable," he said.
According to The Atlantic, the number of pods that were buried in 2014 could circle the Earth an estimated 12 times.
The company has received backlash online in viral videos and petitions for creating a huge amount of waste.
Keurig says it has committed to making its pods 100% recyclable by 2020. Every year, it plans to transition more and more of its pods to a version that uses recyclable plastic.
In addition, the company has a program that collects its pods from users for recycling and is investing in promoting municipal recycling infrastructure.
"The recyclability of Keurig Green Mountain K-Cup packs is a challenge we take very seriously," Keurig said in a statement to BuzzFeed News.
Keurig said that Sylvan has not been a part of the company since its “infancy,” and the company is different today.
However, Sylvan said he had an idea for how to make the pods more environmentally friendly, but it fell on deaf ears.
"I told them how to improve it, but they don’t want to listen," he told The Atlantic. “There’s a much better way of doing it.”
In another show of disapproval, Sylvan said that he doesn’t even have one of his own creations.
"They’re kind of expensive to use," he told The Atlantic. “Plus it’s not like drip coffee is tough to make.”
