The Heinz company was founded by and is named for Henry J. Heinz, who was born in the
United States to German immigrants. His father was originally from Kallstadt (then in
Bavaria, now part of Rhineland-Palatinate). He was distantly related to the Trump family
now based in New York. Their paternal immigrant ancestor reached the United States in
1885. His mother Anna was also from Bavaria, and they met in Pittsburgh. Among his
several siblings was brother John.

20th century

In 1905, H. J. Heinz was incorporated, and Heinz served as its first president, remaining in
the position for the rest of his life. Under his leadership, the company pioneered processes for
sanitary food preparation, leading a successful lobbying effort in favour of the Pure Food and
Drug Act in 1906.[18] Heinz was a pioneer in both scientific and "technological innovations to
solve problems like bacterial contamination." He personally worked to control the "purity of
his products by managing his employees", offering hot showers and weekly manicures for the
women handling food. During World War I, he worked with the Food Administration.[16]

In 1914, Heinz Salad Cream was invented in England.

In 1930, Howard Heinz, son of Henry Heinz, helped to fight the Great Depression by selling
ready-to-serve quality soups and baby food. They became top sellers. During World War II,
"Jack" Heinz led the company as president and CEO to aid the United Kingdom offset food
shortages. Its plant in Pittsburgh was converted for a time to manufacture gliders for the War
Department.

21st century

Billionaire Nelson Peltz initiated a proxy battle during 2006, culminating in a vote to place
Peltz's nominees on the Board. Depending on how many seats the dissident group received
after the final vote tally, this action would potentially displace some of the current board
members. After the final vote, 2 of the 5 Peltz nominees joined the Heinz Board. The new
members of the board were Nelson Peltz and Matthew Craig Walsh.

In June 2008, Heinz began an advertising campaign in the UK for their new 'New York Deli
Mayo' products. The advertisement featured a family with the mother replaced by a male
New York deli worker. The advert ended with the father and the 'mother' kissing. This drew
200 complaints to the Advertising Standards Authority. On June 24, 2008 Heinz decided to
withdraw the advertisement, which was initially planned for a 5-week run. A spokesperson
for Heinz said the company had recognized that some of its customers had concerns about the
advertisement's content.

On August 13, 2013, Heinz announced it was cutting 600 jobs in North America. On October
25, 2013, fast-food chain McDonald's announced it would end its 40-year relationship with
Heinz, after Bernardo Hees became CEO. Hees had previously been the chief executive of
Burger King, a major competitor of McDonald's.
