On March 22, 2024, The Kraft Heinz Company announced that it has received a shareholder proposal from Janet Jensen Dell of The Last Beach Cleanup requesting Board issue a report by December 2024 providing the factual basis for legitimacy of all recyclable claims made on plastic packaging. Report should include substantiation required by California law (Cal. Bus.

& Prof. Code §17580) that must be made available to the public on request, including that plastic packaging labeled as recyclable meets all of the criteria for statewide recyclability pursuant to subdivision (d) of Section 42355.51 of the Public Resources Code. The report should be prepared by independent legal and technical experts who have no financial conflicts caused by working for the plastics or plastics recycling industry. In addition, the board has recommended shareholders to vote against this proposal at the 2024 Annual Meeting to be held on May 2, 2024.
