Für viele gehört es zu Pommes, Hamburger oder Hotdog wie das Salz in die Suppe: das Tomatenketchup des unumstrittenen Weltmarktführers Heinz . Heute vor 179 Jahren wurde Firmengründer Henry John Heinz geboren.
Ketchup is the crowd-pleaser of condiments—a ubiquitous accessory on dinner tables throughout the United States, and, increasingly, the world. But this kid-friendly classic actually has its roots in a much funkier food: fermented fish sauce! So how did the salty, pungent, amber-colored seasoning that gives Southeast Asian cuisine its characteristic flavor turn into a thick, red sauce typically found atop hamburgers and French fries? It's a saga that involves the fall of the Roman empire, eighteenth-century fish sauce knock-offs made from green walnuts and vinegar, and the marketing genius of one Henry J. Heinz. Listen in now for that story, plus the 1981 ketchup scandal that shook the Reagan White House, in our love song to ketchup's weird backstory and underrated culinary sophistication.

From debtors prison to the fastest-growing company in America. HJ Heinz is the story of fish guts, watery ooze, and new manufacturing breakthroughs. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it's us. But we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients, so here's one of those. [Jim's Razorback Pizza Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders Podcast. So Stephen, this is episode 57. Unbelievable. Stephen Semple: 57, isn't that amazing? Just amazing how time flies. And when I got thinking about it, let me ask you a question. When you think about products, Dave, what product comes to mind when you say the number 57? Dave Young: Oh, that would be Heinz. Stephen Semple: That would be Heinz. So today we're going to talk about Heinz. But isn't that incredible? I did not prep you on this. And yet, you say to people, "The number 57," people immediately go, "Heinz ketchup!" So now there's a whole ton of things that we could talk about when it comes to Heinz. I mean, we could do probably God, I don't know how many podcasts we'd do, but what we're going to talk about today is ketchup, because that's really the thing that got things going for Heinz. So Heinz was founded by Henry J. Heinz in January of 1869. And what Heinz did at that time is they did a variety of bottled and pickled products. But things weren't going so great, because in 1875, Henry Heinz went off to debtor prison. Dave Young: Debtor prison, so they were founded long enough ago that there was still debtor prison. Stephen Semple: Yes, sir. And he spent a year in debtor prison. And then in 1876, he traveled off to the UK. Let's just fast forward a little bit. Today, 60% of the retail ketchup market in the US is Heinz. And on March 12th, 2013, Heinz was sold to Berkshire Hathaway and 3G Capital for $23 billion. Dave Young: I didn't know that. I was unaware that Uncle Warren picked up Heinz. Stephen Semple: He along with 3G Capital, they bought it together. So now back to Henry. So after Henry gets out of debtor prison, he travels to the UK and he gets inspired by a bottle of catsup. You know, C-A-T? The C-A-T version? Fermented fish guts is, essentially, what it's made [inaudible 00:03:39]. So it's this fish sauce that's really used to hide the taste of rancid meat. It's kind of disgusting stuff, actually. But it got him thinking. What if he could replace the fish bits with something better, like ripe tomatoes? So he returned to the US and started to work on the recipe. And HJ and his brother, John, emptied out their mother's savings and started experimenting. They wanted to make something with this really broad appeal. And they experimented with a lot of things, including green tomatoes. What they discovered is that when you use ripe, red tomatoes, it makes it thicker, because of all the pectin in the tomatoes. So that's where they landed. Stephen Semple: Think about this. You get out of debtor prison. You go to the UK. You see this fermented fish gut product and say to yourself, "I can do this with tomatoes." You go, you clean out your mother's savings, and you're off to the races. So they developed ketchup and it really started to sell well. It was actually doing very, very well. But the next thing that they did is they put the ketchup in clear bottles so the customers could see the product. And they were really one of the first to do that. Before that, everything was always in green or colored bottles. They were one of the first to do this whole idea of packaging into a clear bottle. But the real growth is about the start.
In this latest episode, the Unexpected duo, Professor James Daybell and Dr Sam Willis tip of the condiment bottle of the past and pour out the unexpected history of KETCHUP! Which is all about eighteenth-century housewives, cookery and medicine; it's about crime and poisoning and Jonathan Swift's poetry! It's also all about US nationalism, geopolitics and trade wars (including McDonalds pulling out of Russia in 2022), spaghetti westerns, and who could forget Mr Henry J. Heinz! Who knew!

There is also an Amazon Sweepstakes in which I offer some cool electronic devices. Click the Amazon link to enter the Amazon Sweepstakes. https://giveaway.amazon.com/p/ea72b4a8346049b1. The sweepstakes ends on November 20, 2017. In past episodes, we defined Guerrillapreneurs as entrepreneurs who integrate sharing, gig and circular loop economies into their business design as a way to conserve cash that will be invested in disruptive "Slingshot" technology. Episode 15 is a Mastermind Interview episode where I have a conversation with an entrepreneur about the issues he/she faces in his/her quest to create value. In this episode we talk with award-winning singer/song writer and musicpreneur Alika Hope. We also feature Alika's new song "In Real Life" or I.R.L. (which is how the song appears on all music outlets). I.R.L. focuses on the importance of being kind to others on social media. Alika will premiere I.R.L. Monday, November 13, 2017 on World Kindness Day. We will also premiere I.R.L. on World Kindness Day. I.R.L. starts at 41.24 on the podcast.Hollywood and social media have glamorized and romanticized the life of the entrepreneur. As Aristotle states, "No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness." However, like other professions, entrepreneurs face immense pressure, stress and anxiety when launching their startups. Moreover, many startups are launched by solopreneurs who have no one to help them de-escalate the stress. A 2013 study by Morneau Shepell states that entrepreneurs are more likely to experience mental health conditions than the general public. The study goes on to say that mental health concerns are reported across 72 percent of entrepreneurs, compared to a mere 7 percent of the general public. A University of California study on the link between entrepreneurship and mental illness found that "49% of entrepreneurs surveyed were dealing with at least one mental illness (such as ADD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, addiction, depression or anxiety) and about one-third of entrepreneurs struggle with 2 or more mental illnesses." In Debra Carpenter's article "Genius in Madness?" she notes that "the lows of depression might give way to the smart solutions and ideas. A manic episode can sometimes enlighten. ADHD prompts fast decision making. Combined, these struggles may incubate tremendous creativity that inspires would-be entrepreneurs to take chances on their ideas." In fact, some of the world's greatest entrepreneurs suffered from various mental issues. In his book America's Obsessives, Joshua Kendall explains that entrepreneurs and leaders like Thomas Jefferson, marketing genius Henry J. Heinz, librarian Melvil Dewey, aviator Charles Lindbergh, beauty tycoon Estee Lauder, baseball slugger Ted Williams and tech guru Steve Jobs all struggles with psychiatric maladies. The problem with lean startups is that most don't have the self-care resources available for its employees. Unfortunately, this lack of resources is impacting the success of the startups. Fortune Magazine found that "13 percent of startups fail because of their founders have lost focus, 9 percent fail because they've lost their passion, and 8 percent fail due to founder burnout, meaning 30 percent of startups fail due to the emotional state of their founders." According to Chris Gory, "Between 2011 and 2015 several high profile suicides rocked the startup world and brought to light the issue of mental health including Austen Heinz, a biotech entrepreneur and the founder of Cambrian Genomics, Aaron Swartz, the co-founder of Reddit; and Jody Sherman, the founder of Ecomom.We discuss these issues Alika Hope because she wants her new song, I.R.L., to bring a(continued)
