ABOUT THIS REPORT

This 2024 Environmental Social Governance Report ("Report") is the sixth Environmental Social Governance (ESG) report issued by The Kraft Heinz Company ("Kraft Heinz" or the "Company"). This Report reflects our commitment to transparency and provides details on our ESG progress in the calendar year ending December 31, 2023. Topics included in this report are based on our most significant ESG issues which are reviewed and updated based on our ESG Materiality Assessment.

This Report does not include details on our financial performance. Details on our financial performance can be found in our public filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and on our investor relations website at ir.kraftheinzcompany.com. Materiality as used in this report, sometimes referenced as "ESG materiality," and our ESG materiality review process are intended to reflect priority ESG issues and do not have the same meaning as materiality under U.S. securities laws, in our filings with the SEC, or under similar laws in other jurisdictions. Issues deemed material for purposes of this Report and for purposes of determining our ESG strategies may not be considered material for other purposes, including our SEC or other reporting.

Unless otherwise noted, Kraft Heinz generally utilizes an operational control approach, and this Report covers initiatives and performance metrics associated with our global operations. Kraft Heinz anticipates issuing an ESG Report annually.

We have utilized the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a guiding framework in the development of our ESG initiatives. This Report also serves as our Communication on Progress as a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact and CEO Water Mandate.

Kraft Heinz supports the SDGs, which represent a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all. As such, we considered the SDGs when developing Kraft Heinz's global ESG strategy and goals. The global ESG strategy of Kraft Heinz supports all 17 SDGs in varying degrees.

This Report was prepared with reference to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Sustainability Standard. We have also aligned this Report to the general principles of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) for food and beverage companies, as well as the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosure (TCFD). Separate downloads of our 'GRI,' 'SASB,' and 'TCFD' disclosures are available on our website at www.KraftHeinzCompany.com/ESG.

Kraft Heinz engaged with Bureau Veritas to provide limited assurance in relation to specific 2023 environmental data. Details on our assurance activities are available in the appendix of this Report and on our website at www.KraftHeinzCompany.com/ESG.

We welcome feedback on our ESG strategy and goals. To share questions or comments, please contact [e-mail].

A LETTER FROM THE CEO

At Kraft Heinz, our Company Dream is To be the leader in elevating and creating food that makes you feel good. It's the North Star that points our way forward. We believe in making food that nurtures your body and warms your SOUL. Food that's good for your HEALTH, and good for our PLANET. Food that delivers good VALUE, with QUALITY you feel good about serving to the people you love.

On behalf of our 36,000 global employees, I welcome you to our 2024 Environmental Social Governance (ESG) Report. We share it to update you on the progress we are making toward our ESG goals, working Together at the Table with our stakeholders to help solve some of the most pressing issues facing our industry - and our world.

We center our enterprise-wide ESG efforts around three Pillars: Healthy Living & Community Support, Environmental Stewardship, and Responsible Sourcing. ESG initiatives are integrated into our long-term business strategy, whether we are sustainably sourcing tomatoes for our beloved Heinz Tomato Ketchup, supporting the communities where we work and live, improving product health and nutrition, or procuring electricity from renewable sources. Our efforts focus on the priority areas and issues where we believe we can make the most impact on the planet, business, and brands.

As we have highlighted in our past ESG Reports, partnerships are essential to achieving our ESG goals. For example, in 2023 we hosted our first-ever supplier webinar to share our ESG strategy and Net Zero ambition and set the foundations for a future Supplier Sustainability Engagement program. We also announced a new goal to reduce the use of virgin plastic in our global portfolio by 20 percent by 2030 - something only possible through collaboration with our packaging partners. And one of our most vibrant long- term partnerships is with Rise Against Hunger, as we work together to alleviate global hunger. In 2023, we provided approximately 368 million meals to people in need, achieving 90 percent of our goal to provide 1.5 billion meals to people in need by 2025.

As we look ahead, what will drive our ESG agenda is our Company's new 10-Year Strategy (10YS). It is guiding our path forward, as well as our strategic platforms, markets, and investments.

The timeline for the majority of our current ESG commitments is 2025. To align our ESG commitments with our business strategy, we will evaluate our current progress and future goals through the lens of our 10YS with a focus on topics that we can directly influence and that are important to business resilience.

Like many of our peers, as we near the midpoint of the decade, we are more aware of the challenges of delivering our ambitious ESG goals. At Kraft Heinz, we are working diligently to address our biggest challenges and making substantial improvements as we press toward our ESG goals. That's what a spirit of Ownership is all about.

We've learned a lot over the past five years and commit to continuing to learn and improve. It's all about setting the table for the future - one that is more delicious and sustainable for us all. As we look to the future, we aim to continue to build a robust, improved ESG agenda centered around strategic commitments and focused delivery to drive both ESG performance and stockholder value.

To fulfill its oversight responsibilities, the Board receives regular updates on priority ESG issues from our Chief Procurement and Sustainability Officer, as well as other team leaders throughout the business, which cover topics related to policy and program development, actions taken to protect the Company from the negative impacts of climate change on our operations and value chain, and progress toward achieving our ESG goals.

We pursue our ESG goals through a cross-functional approach across the Company and throughout our value chain, centered on continuous improvement. Our ESG governance structure is designed to enable us to live our Dream and Values and embed ESG throughout the Company.
