- Trump Removes Tariffs on Key Food & Beverage Imports Including Coffee, Cocoa and Beef | FNBX
US President Donald Trump has rolled back a series of wide-reaching import tariffs, removing levies on a range of food and beverage products including coffee, tea, tropical fruits, cocoa, spices, nuts, grains and beef. US President Donald Trump has rolled back a series of wide-reaching import tariffs, removing levies on a range of food and beverage products including coffee, tea, tropical fruits, cocoa, spices, nuts, grains and beef . Earlier this year, the administration imposed a baseline 10% tariff on most imported goods, citing efforts to address US trade deficits and what Trump called a lack of “reciprocity” from trading partners. Some categories faced additional surcharges. However, on 14 November , the White House announced significant modifications to the tariff policy, with Trump signing an Executive Order exempting a number of agricultural and food items not grown domestically. The administration said limited US production capacity made it “necessary and appropriate” to reverse the measures. The changes apply retroactively from 13 November 2025 . Industry welcomes the move Hershey issued a statement applauding the exemption of cocoa, noting that the crop is essential to its US operations and supports more than 10,000 domestic jobs. “This exemption strengthens our domestic supply chain and enables us to continue investing in American manufacturing,” the company said. The National Coffee Association (NCA) also supported the decision. CEO Bill Murray said removing reciprocal tariffs on most coffee imports would ease cost-of-living pressures and support an industry where every $1 in imports generates $43 in US economic value . Murray also praised recent trade deals with Switzerland, Argentina, Ecuador, El Salvador and Guatemala . Tariff scrutiny and beef market tensions The rollback comes amid political pressure over rising food and beverage prices in the US, though Trump denies his tariff policies have contributed to inflation. Last week, the President instructed the Department of Justice to investigate major meatpacking companies for alleged price manipulation in the beef sector. The action follows concerns that US cattle production cannot meet domestic demand. Bill Bullard , CEO of rancher association R-Calf USA , said the President’s concerns about capacity constraints are valid, blaming decades of weak trade policy and lack of antitrust enforcement for industry consolidation. He argued consumers have faced inflated beef prices since 2017 , even while cattle prices had previously fallen. Bullard added that drought conditions worsened supply issues, pushing cattle prices sharply upward as strong consumer demand collided with scarcity. With beef now at the highest nominal prices in US history , Bullard said the industry must rebuild production and competition.R-Calf USA “ strongly supports ” the DOJ investigation, pledging to work with the administration to restore fair market conditions.

- Unilever Names Peter ter Kulve as Preferred CEO for Magnum Ice Cream Company Ahead of Spin-Off | FNBX
Unilever has proposed Peter ter Kulve as its preferred candidate to head the Magnum Ice Cream Company, the group’s ice cream division, with full board approval expected. Unilever has proposed Peter ter Kulve as the incoming CEO of its newly formed Magnum Ice Cream Company, the group’s ice cream division, with full board approval expected shortly. The announcement comes as Unilever prepares to spin off its ice cream business, including global brands such as Ben & Jerry’s, ahead of a planned Amsterdam listing by the end of 2025. Ter Kulve currently serves as Unilever’s president of ice cream and previously led the company’s home care division. A spokesperson confirmed: “It is proposed that Peter ter Kulve will become CEO of The Magnum Ice Cream Company. Approval of the full board of The Magnum Ice Cream Company by the Unilever PLC Board is anticipated in July 2025.” The newly formed Magnum Ice Cream Company will act as the parent entity for Unilever’s global ice cream brands. The appointment arrives amid ongoing tensions between Unilever and Ben & Jerry’s, including a March 2025 lawsuit over the removal of the brand’s CEO and disputes regarding the company’s advocacy on geopolitical issues, such as calls for a ceasefire in Gaza. In November 2024, Ben & Jerry’s also filed a lawsuit alleging that Unilever attempted to block the brand from expressing support for Palestinian refugees. Reports earlier this year indicated that Ben & Jerry’s was exploring buyback options. Ben & Jerry’s, acquired by Unilever in 2000 for $326 million, is estimated to be the third-largest ice cream brand globally, according to Warren Ackerman, an analyst at Barclays. Ackerman noted that the outcome of ter Kulve’s appointment could influence investor sentiment, particularly given ongoing disputes and the upcoming spin-off. Unilever’s ice cream division reported a combined turnover of €8.3 billion in 2024, highlighting its significance within the group’s portfolio. A formal confirmation of ter Kulve’s appointment is expected following a July board meeting.

Doritos launches ‘crunch-cancelling’ tech for gamers with new Doritos Silent software Doritos has unveiled Doritos Silent – a first-of-its-kind noise-cancelling software designed to remove the sound of crisp crunching during online gaming sessions. Developed in partnership with Smooth Technology, a specialist in electronic and interactive design, the innovation uses “crunch-cancellation” technology to filter out chewing sounds via PC microphones.

Nearly half of UK gamers (46%) say they dislike hearing others eat, while in Portugal (68%) and Spain (64%), crisps were ranked as the noisiest snack. In the US, 30% of gamers said that others crunching negatively impacts their performance. Fernando Kahane, Global Marketing Head at PepsiCo, said: “The connection between Doritos fans and the gaming community is undeniable.

With Doritos Silent, we’ve created a way for players to enjoy their favourite snack without distraction.” The innovation continues PepsiCo’s focus on cross-sector brand experiences, merging food, technology, and entertainment to reach digital-first consumers.
