 PROFILE
The J. M. Smucker Company likes to stick with sticky stuff. The #1 US producer of jams, jellies, and preserves also makes dessert toppings, peanut butter, juices, and specialty fruit spreads under brand names such as Laura Scudder's, R.W. Knudsen, and Magic Shell. Smucker's industrial fruit fillings sweeten Pop-Tarts and Dannon yogurt cups. Smucker's is also strong in Australia and Canada, where it owns production plants and major labels. To offset slow growth in jams and jellies, Smucker's has introduced convenient snacks aimed at kids. The company is still very much a family operation: the founder's great-grandsons Timothy and Richard run it and the family owns more than 20% of the stock.
