About HP Sauce

HP Sauce is a British brown sauce first sold in 1895 and named after the Houses of Parliament, which appear on the label after the maker heard that a restaurant there served it. Heinz acquired the brand in 2005 and moved production from Birmingham to the Netherlands in 2007, prompting protests.
