HP Sauce The Original brown sauce

Owner:The Kraft Heinz Company (USA)
OriginUnited Kingdom
Manufactured:Netherlands

HP Sauce is a legendary British condiment, originally developed in Nottingham, England, in the late 19th century. Its name is derived from London's Houses of Parliament, and the label iconically features the Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben). Despite its long British history, the production was controversially moved from Birmingham, UK, to Elst in the Netherlands in 2007.

Today, the brand is owned by Kraft Heinz. After deep roots in the UK food industry and decades of ownership by companies like Danone, it was acquired by the H. J. Heinz Company in 2005. Following the 2015 merger with Kraft, it remains a flagship product within the Kraft Heinz international portfolio, maintaining its status as the United Kingdom's favorite brown sauce despite being manufactured abroad.
