Heinz

The H. J. Heinz Company, or Heinz, is an American food processing company with world headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It was founded by Henry J. Heinz in 1869. The H. J. Heinz Company manufactures thousands of food products in plants on six continents, and markets these products in more than 200 countries and territories. The company claims to have 150 number-one or number two-brands worldwide. Heinz ranked first in ketchup in the US with a market share in excess of 50%;Ore-Ida label held 46% of the frozen-potato sector in 2003.

Since 1896, the company has used its "57 Varieties" slogan; it was inspired by a sign advertising 21 styles of shoes, and Henry Heinz chose the number 57 even though the company manufactured more than 60 products at the time.

On February 14, 2013, Heinz agreed to be purchased by Berkshire Hathaway and 3G Capital for $23 billion. On March 25, 2015, Kraft announced its merger with Heinz, arranged by Berkshire Hathaway and 3G Capital. The resulting Kraft Heinz Company is the fifth largest food company in the world. Berkshire Hathaway became a majority owner of Heinz on June 18, 2015. After exercising a warrant to acquire 46,195,652 shares of common stock for a total price of $461,956.52, Berkshire increased its stake to 52.5%. The companies completed the merger on July 2, 2015.

    Mein Heint das ist ein echter Musikus
    den alle sehr mögen
    doch wenn er zu Hause üben muá
    bebt ringsum die Welt.
    Am Schlagzeug sitzt er dann den ganzen Tag
    bestimmt kommt die Stunde
    daá bei irgendeinem paukenschlag
    der Kronleuchter fällt.
    Er scheint auch niemals dran zu denken
    mir mal einen Blick zu schenken
    liebt er denn sein Hobby mehr als mich?
    Heinz
    laá doch die Pauke steh'n
    ich kann es nicht mehr hören.
    Warum muát du immerzu
    die andern Leute stören?
    Heinz
    ich bin doch auch noch da
    komm
    gib mir einen Kuá
    und mach' mit deiner Nervensägerei für heute Schluá
    Die Leute aus dem Hause fangen an
    sich laut zu beschweren
    ob er nicht woanders üben kann
    das fragen sie mich.
    Doch sag' ich ihm
    sei bitte nicht so laut
    kann er nichts verstehen
    weil er gerade auf die Pauke haut
    die Dumme bin ich.
    Drum werde ich nun daran denken
    ihm mal einen Kamm zu schenken
    dieses Instrument ist nicht so laut.
    Heinz
    laá doch die Pauke steh'n
    . . .
    Meinz
    laá doch die Pauke steh'n
    . . .
