Description

In Good Company 125 Years At the Heinz Table 1869-1994nby Eleanor Foa DienstagnnReviews From Library JournalnThe H.J. Heinz Company is perhaps best known in the United States for products such as ketchup and vinegar. However, it is much more than the company of “57 varieties.” It is a diverse organization that sells more than 3000 varieties of products worldwide. Journalist Dienstag relied on personal interviews and corporate archives in preparing this book, which consists of three main sections: the first gives a brief overview of the company’s present-day activities; the second chronicles the achievements of the five chief executives who have served during the company’s 125-year history, including founder Henry John Heinz and current leader Tony O’Reilly; and the final section provides short histories of the development of the company’s eight major brands. Dienstag has successfully organized a wealth of information to produce a readable company history.
