Henry John Heinz was an American entrepreneur who, at the age of 25, co-founded a small horseradish business in Sharpsburg, Pennsylvania. This business failed, but his second business expanded into tomato ketchup and other condiments, and ultimately became the internationally known H. J. Heinz Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
