"Even if consumption is a bit down, I would expect shipments to outrun that as we replenish inventory levels in our retailers," he told CNBC on June 3 (Wednesday). Campbell's was one of the companies that got a welcome jolt to its bottom line as consumers stocked up at the supermarket during the early phase of the pandemic lockdown.

"We do expect the stickiness, if you will, of these behaviors to continue moving forward," said Clouse. At the start of the pandemic, he noted that Campbell's was seeing sales pick up "rapidly at both traditional retailers, and online especially.

Soups, snacks and Prego spaghetti sauce tend to be the big sellers during natural disasters.
