General Mills has outlined new steps to accelerate growth and reaffirmed its long-term financial outlook during its 2025 Investor Day held at the company’s headquarters in Minneapolis.
Chairman and CEO Jeff Harmening told analysts that the food group has reshaped roughly one-third of its portfolio under its Accelerate strategy and now plans to build further on that foundation through innovation, technology, and efficiency.
The company confirmed its fiscal 2026 outlook and long-term growth targets. Executives detailed plans to strengthen the remarkability of global brands and expand digital and omnichannel capabilities to stay competitive in a shifting consumer market.
During the event, the General Mills Investor Day 2025 presentation highlighted four main business engines: North America Retail, North America Pet, International, and North America Foodservice. Each segment is expected to drive growth through category leadership, marketing investment, and new product development.
Leaders pointed to upcoming launches across cereal, snacks, and pet food, along with a sharper focus on packaging design, sustainability, and data-driven marketing. The company said its digital and technology investments are improving speed, efficiency, and consumer connection across its supply chain.
General Mills plans to sustain shareholder value through consistent sales growth, margin expansion, and steady cash returns via dividends and share repurchases.
“After years of volatility, our business is stronger, more agile, and better positioned to keep adapting,” Harmening said. “Our brands, our people, and our scale give us confidence for the years ahead.”
With fiscal 2025 net sales of $19 billion, the group expects continued progress through 2026 as it pushes further into high-growth channels and continues modernizing its global portfolio.
The General Mills Investor Day 2025 updates reinforce the company’s strategy to stay a step ahead of market change — balancing resilience, brand investment, and steady performance for both retailers and shareholders.
