HJ Heinz Company: The Ketchup People

Walk into any diner in America and you’re likely to see his name on ketchup bottles on pickle jars. Henry J Heinz has been a part of American culture for more than a century. Heinz sold his products on every continent. He coined one of the most memorable lines in the history of advertising “57 varieties”. He was an obsessive genius, yet in an era of domineering bosses and robber barons Heinz motivated his employees with kindness. HJ Heinz was certainly an uncommon man devoted to his religion, his family and his pickles but not necessarily in that order.

US and China aim to resolve tariff dispute

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and chief trade negotiator Jamieson Greer will meet China’s economic tsar He Lifeng in Switzerland this weekend for talks that could be the first step toward resolving a trade war disrupting the global economy. News of the planned Geneva meeting, first announced by Washington late on Tuesday, sent US equity index futures higher. Stock markets in China and Hong Kong followed suit during trading on Wednesday. The talks come after weeks of escalating tensions that have seen duties on goods imports between the world’s two largest economies soar well beyond 100 per cent, amounting to what Bessent described as the equivalent of a trade embargo.
