Conagra Brands named J.M. Smucker executive John Brase as its new CEO as the packaged food maker navigates softer U.S. consumer spending and a shifting tariff and geopolitical backdrop. The appointment is a leadership change rather than a financial update, but it underscores ongoing pressure on demand and supply-chain conditions. Market impact should be limited unless the new CEO signals a more substantive strategy shift.
