Communications
As a leading international food and nutrition company, H.J. Heinz Company is dedicated to helping consumers make informed and healthy choices about diet and lifestyle relative to their health, well-being and overall nutrition.
Heinz has established guidelines for all of its units and affiliates worldwide related to the marketing of its products, including the use of public relations campaigns, consumer education efforts, advertising and Internet-based media. These media offer direct communications either to large groups of consumers or to targeted segments of the population, including young children, teens and parents. The Company’s policies must reflect Heinz’s focus on policy and long-standing commitment to proper nutrition and consumer well-being. Heinz conveys these commitments through responsible advertising and messages that promote the healthful consumption of the Company’s products.
Each Heinz business unit has Consumer Services Representatives that connect with consumers by phone, e-mail or mail. These professionals are well equipped to deal with any questions consumers may have about our products and enhance our reputation as being a trusted provider of high-quality food products.
