This study aims to investigate the factors such as the firm-specific factors and macro-economic factors that affecting the profitability of the selected food and beverage manufacturing company in United States, Campbell Soup Company. Multiple regression analysis of financial ratios of the selected companies is conducted from year 2013 to 2017. The findings and analysis show that firm-specific factors such as the debt to income and operational ratio have influence on the profitability of the company. While the macro-economic factors did not have influence on the profitability in this study. Hence, the approach suggested to increase the efficiency of the operation of the business is by implementing software such as robotic process automation which can increase the efficiency and reduce the error when doing manual task and thus reduce the operational cost. Besides, the company can factor the account receivable to reduce the credit risk of non-payment as overall. Other than that, company should practice good corporate governance to have a better internal control and thus increase the profitability.
