OverviewThough Heinz Ketchup is one of the most recognized corporate symbols in the world, few people know anything at all about the founder of this global brand, H. J. Heinz. Whereas industrial giants Rockefeller, Carnegie, Westinghouse, and Mellon are household names, Heinz has slipped into obscurity. Yet during a time of great transfers of wealth brought about in part by these famous robber barons, Heinz was well known for his humane treatment of his employees, customers, and suppliers. At the same time Heinz built a commercial empire by his use of industrialized food processing before Henry Ford.
