Fortnum & Mason is where Heinz Baked Beans were first introduced to Britain in 1886, with Henry J. Heinz himself approaching the esteemed store, which promptly bought all his samples, sparking Britain's love for the product and leading to Heinz establishing a UK base. The iconic department store continues its historical link, offering premium versions like their own "Proper Beans" and even collaborating on special editions, like limited-edition tins in Fortnum's signature Eau de Nil colour for Heinz's 150th anniversary in 2019
