CAMDEN, N.J., Mar 02, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) — Campbell Soup Company(NYSE:CPB) placed number 12 on Corporate
Responsibility Magazine’s 11th annual 100 Best Corporate

significant single-year advancement by any company surveyed for this
year’s list.

said, “Campbell is committed to advancing our commitment to corporate
social responsibility and sustainability. I am proud that Campbell’s
corporate responsibility practices and performance have been recognized,
which reflects the effort of thousands of dedicated Campbell people
around the world. We are absolutely committed to winning with integrity,
while we strive to win in the marketplace, the workplace and the
community.”

Launched in 2000, the 100 Best Corporate Citizens List is based on over
360 data points of publicly available information in seven categories:
environment, climate change, human rights, employee relations,
governance, philanthropy and financial performance. The 100 Best
Corporate Citizens are selected from among the large-cap Russell 1000
companies. The 100 Best Corporate Citizens List’s open and transparent
methodology is governed by a Methodology Committee of the Corporate
Responsibility Officers Association.

one of its seven core business strategies. The company’s Corporate
Social Responsibility (CSR) strategies are intended to make positive
