President's Welcome Message

 

Welcome to Hirzel Canning Co. and Farm's web site. This current method of transferring information over the Web is current, fast, visual, factual, and discretional. Tasting our fine products is the one thing that you cannot do over the Web.

When my grandfather, Carl R., and grandmother, Lena, started our food processing business in 1923, they found that the most effective way to inform potential customers about their product was to actually let them sample it. Grandpa Carl would don a clean, white shirt and suit, place a can of whole tomatoes and sauerkraut in a small wooden cheese box, and drive his model T-Ford to the city. He would then stop at each of the many corner-grocery stores and confer (a sales pitch!) with its owner. Then, before leaving, he would leave the two sample cans of product there, preferably with the proprietor's wife. The product sold itself!

While current technology still does not provide you with the opportunity to smell and taste any of our products on this web site, the information provided to you here is descriptive and factual and allows you to make your own decisions.

Again, thank you for visiting our web site and all of us third, forth, and fifth generation family and non-family employees look forward to serving your needs and providing you with Ohio's best tasting and most nutritious canned tomato products and sauerkraut.

Bon Appétit!

Karl A. Hirzel
President, CEO
