NEW YORK (Reuters) - Kraft Heinz Co is feeling the pinch from trade conflicts and rising costs, but is still willing to consider an acquisition to fuel growth, its chief executive officer said on Friday. CEO Bernardo Hees said in an interview that the maker of Heinz ketchup and Maxwell House coffee is “being hurt” by retaliation over U.S. steel and aluminum tariffs, which Canada responded to by slapping taxes on goods ranging from sauces to coffee.
