Heinz Tomato Soup

Brand origin and history

Heinz Tomato Soup is produced under the Heinz brand, which traces its origins to the H. J. Heinz Company founded by Henry J. Heinz in 1869 in the Pittsburgh area of Pennsylvania, USA. The original H. J. Heinz Company built its reputation on preserved foods and condiments before expanding into soups and canned meals. (britannica.com)

Manufacturing and distribution

Heinz-branded soups, including tomato soup, are manufactured and distributed in multiple countries to serve regional markets. The parent company operates production facilities and supply chains across North America, Europe and other regions; specific product packaging and production sites vary by market and SKU. For that reason, Heinz Tomato Soup is typically produced in multiple countries rather than a single origin. (sec.gov)

Ownership and current corporate status

The H. J. Heinz Company became part of The Kraft Heinz Company after the 2015 merger with Kraft Foods Group; Kraft Heinz is the ultimate owner of the Heinz brand and its product lines. Kraft Heinz is co-headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Chicago, Illinois and is a publicly traded global food company. In 2025 the company announced plans to reorganize/split parts of its business to better focus operations, but Heinz remains an owned brand within the Kraft Heinz portfolio. (britannica.com)
