The H.J. Heinz Company, headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is the most global of all U.S.-based food companies.

In more than 50 of those countries, we enjoy the number-one or number-two market position. Key Heinz markets are segmented as North American Consumer Products, U.S. Foodservice, Europe, Asia Pacific and Rest of World. Our commitment to providing a variety of wholesome foods, with an unwavering emphasis on health and wellness, makes Heinz like no other company on earth.

Our kitchen is just like yours, only a bit bigger.

Each day we receive truckloads of fresh produce. Once in our kitchen ingredients like fruits, vegetables and grains are cooked then pureed in their own juices to lock in all the flavour and nutrients. Additional water is added when cooking pasta or rice, just as you would. When needed we use no more than roughly 5% of a thickener, like flour or potato, just as you might use a little cornflour when making a stew.

Heinz has an independently certified and audited food safety program. This program is referred to as HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) and its principles are derived from a program developed by NASA to ensure that the food astronauts take into space is safe.

Our recipes are the same as homemade, just bigger. They are all developed in 2kg pots and once they meet our taste and nutrition standards, they are then moved to a 2000 kg kettle for production. Of course our kitchen is a bit stricter than yours- our employees can't even have peanut butter sandwiches for lunch because peanuts may cause allergic reactions. It might seem pedantic, but clearly your child's health is more important than what's for lunch.
