HP Sauce is a condiment, a popular brown sauce produced in Aston, Birmingham, England by HP Foods.
In May 2006, Heinz announced plans to switch production of HP Sauce from Aston to its European sauces facility in Elst, Holland, prompting a boycott of all Heinz products by many people in Birmingham. The move resulted in the loss of approximately 125 jobs at the Aston factory. It was demolished in December 2007.
