Sonoco Named on the Fortune 500 List

With 22,000 teammates, Sonoco serves customers across paper and metal packaging markets around the world.

Sonoco Products Company, a global leader in high-value sustainable packaging, has returned to the Fortune 500 list, a ranking of the largest U.S. companies by revenue.

Coming in at #489, Sonoco had sales of $7.8 billion in 2025. With 22,000 teammates, Sonoco serves customers across paper and metal packaging markets around the world.

Companies on the Fortune 500 list represent roughly two-thirds of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and employ more than 30 million people worldwide. Both public and private companies are eligible for the Fortune 500 designation.

“This is a proud moment for Sonoco and a testament to our operational strength and market leadership,” said Howard Coker, president and CEO. “Returning to the Fortune 500 reflects the hard work of our employees around the world and a focused strategy built on innovation and operational excellence. We are committed to delivering unmatched value for our customers and shareholders while advancing packaging solutions that help build a more sustainable future.”

In addition to Fortune 500 placement, Sonoco earned industry recognition in 2025–2026 from Fortune, Newsweek and USA Today for corporate responsibility and climate leadership.
