Campbell’s Condensed Banza Chickpea Pasta and Chicken Soup
For the first time, one of America’s most iconic soups is available for gluten free eaters to enjoy, marking a milestone for Campbell’s. This answers growing consumer demand for gluten free options without compromising on taste or tradition. Approximately 30% of the U.S. population actively seeks gluten free options1, and the U.S. gluten free market is projected to grow at a 9.8% compound annual growth rate from 2026 to 20332.
“For over 125 years, Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup has been a staple in homes across America. Partnering with Banza lets us bring that same classic chicken noodle taste to the growing number of people looking for gluten free options, made with ingredients like No Antibiotics Ever chicken meat and Banza’s chickpea pasta in a flavorful variety that will stand out on shelf,” said Benjamin Crook, senior vice president of soup at The Campbell’s Company.
Developed for quick lunches and busy weeknights, Campbell’s Condensed Gluten Free Banza Chickpea Pasta and Chicken Soup is made with No Antibiotics Ever chicken meat from USDA approved U.S. suppliers. Campbell’s and Banza worked together to develop a special variety of Banza’s chickpea pasta designed to hold up in broth while maintaining its texture in the finished soup.
“Banza’s mission is to inspire people to eat more chickpeas, and what better way to do that than partnering with one of the most iconic American food brands,” said Brian Rudolph, co-founder and CEO of Banza. “Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup has been a staple for generations. Bringing it to the gluten free community for the first time is something we’re proud to be a part of.”
Campbell’s® Condensed Gluten Free Banza Chickpea Pasta and Chicken Soup is available now on Amazon and will roll out to retailers nationwide, with a suggested retail price of $1.99 per can. To celebrate the launch, Prime members can save 20% on the new soup during Amazon Prime Day. For more information, visit campbells.com and eatbanza.com.
