01
Artifact Overview
The H.J. Heinz Company employed a robust, well-trained sales force to work directly with grocery stores throughout the country. After securing a store's business, Heinz salesmen visited regularly to introduce new products, clear expired or otherwise unsaleable merchandise, and create product displays. These neat, orderly presentations caught shoppers' attention and helped reinforce the notion that Heinz products were of consistent, high quality.
