'Shows transportation system necessary to move agricultural crops from farm to factory, where they are made into Heinz food products, especially ketchup.'
Originally a public domain film from the Library of Congress Prelinger Archives, slightly cropped to remove uneven edges, with the aspect ratio corrected, and one-pass brightness-contrast-color correction & mild video noise reduction applied.
The soundtrack was also processed with volume normalization, noise reduction, clipping reduction, and/or equalization (the resulting sound, though not perfect, is far less noisy than the original).

Heinz Tomato Ketchup is a brand of ketchup produced by the H. J. Heinz Company as part of Kraft Heinz. Heinz Ketchup captures 80% of the market share in Europe and 60% in the US...
History
First introduced in 1869 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Heinz Tomato Ketchup remains the best selling brand of ketchup.[2] From 1906 it was produced without preservatives.[3] In 1907, Heinz started producing 13 million bottles of ketchup per year, exporting ketchup all over the world, including India, Australia, Israel, South America, Japan, Indonesia, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom. Heinz ketchup is often served at restaurants in the United States and Canada, as well as many other countries. As a condiment for many foods, such as french fries, chips, hamburgers and hot dogs, Heinz ketchup uses the slogan, "America's Favorite Ketchup." As of 2012, there are more than 650 million bottles of Heinz Tomato Ketchup being sold every year throughout the world.
In January 2009, the label design was altered, with the illustration of a gherkin pickle that had adorned the label since the 1890s removed and replaced with an illustration of a vine-ripened tomato accompanied by the slogan "Upgrade To Heinz".
In a recent American Customer Satisfaction Index poll of 10,644 consumers, H.J. Heinz Co. had the highest score of any food or beverage firm, higher than Kraft, Coca-Cola, and Nestlé.
Production
Heinz manufactures all of its American tomato ketchup at two plants: one in Fremont, Ohio, and another in Muscatine, Iowa. Heinz closed their plant in Leamington, Ontario in 2014. The former Canadian plant is now owned by Highbury Vancouver to produce French's ketchup in Canada.
Globally, Heinz produces ketchup and other tomato sauces in factories the world over, including such nations as the U.K. and the Netherlands. Although Heinz touts "one basic recipe" for its mainstay ketchup, there are variations in this recipe tailored to national tastes, and dependent on the country of production.
