Heinz sale made room for lofts

Heinz sale made room for lofts

Since the H.J. Heinz Co. sold several of its businesses to Del Monte Foods in early 2003, it no longer has a presence at its former factory on the North Side. Del Monte occupies six buildings, including the one with the ketchup clock as well as a production plant, research center and office buildings. A total of 1,200 employees work there.
