Heinz Tomato Blokjes (Met Basilicum & Oregano)

Heinz Tomato Blokjes (chopped tomatoes) with basil and oregano is a popular pantry staple in the Netherlands, designed for use in pasta sauces and soups. The brand has a heritage dating back to 1869 when Henry J. Heinz founded the company in the United States.

While Heinz is an American brand by origin, the manufacturing of their tomato products for the European market is often centralized in European countries like Italy or the United Kingdom, depending on where the crops are sourced and processed. Since 2015, the brand has been part of the Kraft Heinz Company, which was formed through a mega-merger. The company operates globally but maintains its primary headquarters in the United States. In the Benelux region, it is managed through local subsidiaries that oversee distribution to major retailers.
