began her tenure at Diageo in 2002 as an ingredients buyer and
worked progressively through the global Procurement organization,
holding key leadership roles including leading Brand Change and
Innovation in the North America business. She was appointed to
Chief Procurement Officer in May 2019 and led a significant and
successful transformation of the Procurement function, while
improving collaboration of suppliers and delivering enhanced
digital and innovation solutions.
Orozco will play a critical role in Kraft Heinz’s North America
Zone and within the Company’s global Procurement organization. She
will serve as a key member of the North America Leadership Team,
reporting to both Carlos Abrams-Rivera, Executive Vice President
& President, North America Zone and Marcos Eloi, Executive Vice
President & Global Chief Procurement Officer.
“We are on a quest to create a renowned Procurement function
that is built to deliver consistent results today and become a
competitive advantage for the business in the future,” said
Abrams-Rivera. “Janelle joining our team is a marker of the
transformation of this function. She brings a breadth of experience
and knack for developing diverse, high-performing teams. We’re
excited to have her help lead us into the next phase of our
journey.”
Since 2020, Kraft Heinz has taken multiple steps to transform
its overall growth profile, strategic focus, and financial

several senior leaders Kraft Heinz has brought on to its North
America Leadership Team in the last two years. Those leadership
additions lend industry-leading expertise and new capabilities in
