Ensuring Quality and Safety for Consumers


Truth in Labeling
Truth in labeling has been a hallmark of Heinz for 140 years. The Regulatory Affairs departments of Heinz affiliates leverage the Global Database to maintain a labeling compliance platform that ensures consumers receive the most accurate and up-to-date information about the ingredients and nutritional value of our products. Our product labeling meets the high standards for clarity and accuracy and also conforms to the unique labeling requirements of each country where we sell our products. In Fiscal 2006 and Fiscal 2007, Heinz did not have any significant penalties or fines associated with product labeling regulations.
