HistoryThe company was founded as Libby, McNeill & Libby in Chicago, Illinois, by Archibald McNeill and the brothers Arthur and Charles Libby. The business began with a canned meat product, beef in brine, or corned beef. The product became well-known when the company began to package the meat in a trapezoid-shaped can starting in 1875.[1] By 1880, it had 1,500 employees in Chicago.[2] Libby, McNeill & Libby was acquired by Nestlé in 1970.[3] Nestlé introduced Juicy Juice in 1977 and it was branded under the Libby's name. In 2006, Juicy Juice became branded under the Nestlé name. In 2014, the Juicy Juice brand and business was sold by Nestlé to Harvest Hill Beverage Company, a portfolio company of Brynwood Partners.[4][5] In 1982, Libby's canned vegetable business was acquired by S.S. Pierce Company (now Seneca Foods) and its canned fruits business was acquired by California Canners and Growers (Cal Can).[6][7] In 1984, Cal Can merged with Tri-Valley Growers. In 2000, Tri-Valley Growers went bankrupt and the bulk of its operations, including the rights to the Libby's canned fruit business, was acquired by Signature Fruit LLC in 2001.[8] In 2006, Seneca Foods acquired Signature Fruit.[9] Niagara Trading Company (now NTC Marketing, Inc.) acquired a long-term license for the Libby's name for canned pineapple and juices in 1983.[10][11] In 1998, Libby's canned meat business was sold by Nestlé to International Home Foods.[12] In 2000, International Home Foods was acquired by ConAgra.[13] In 2006, the Libby's trademark was sold by Nestlé to a Swiss entity that became known as Libby Brand Holding. AdvertisingIn the 1970s, Libby's had a successful television advertising campaign featuring their jingle, "When it says Libby's Libby's Libby's on the label, label, label, you will like it, like it, like it, on your table, table, table."[14] OperationsBefore and after World War II, Libby's had canning operations outside the United States in Belgium and France, at Leer in northern Germany, and in the United Kingdom. In 2015 Peaty Mills plc. acquired the Libby’s brand rights for preserved foods in the UK, Eire and Portugal with the exceptions of Corned Beef, Pumpkin and Fruit Juices. The brand rights for Fruit Juice in the UK are held by Refresco. Libby's trademark in Canary Islands, Spain and Portugal is licensed to Establecimientos Industriales Archipiélago S.A.[15] 2009 canned pumpkin shortageIn November 2009, Libby's announced that because of poor weather on its Illinois pumpkin farms and a depleted back stock, a canned pumpkin shortage was likely as Thanksgiving approached. Libby's accounts for the vast majority of canned pumpkin production in the United States, and the shortfall prompted Libby's to establish farms in multiple states as a hedge against another mass shortage like the one that happened in 2009.[16] References1. ^ConAgra history 2. ^Encyclopedia of Chicago history 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1985-09-26/business/8503050403_1_nestle-holdings-nestle-foods-canned|title=Libby leaving Chicago|first=Charles|last=Storch|work=The New York Times|date=26 September 1985|access-date=14 March 2018}} 4. ^{{cite web |url= https://www.bevnet.com/news/2014/nestle-usa-unloads-stake-in-juicy-juice |title= Nestlé USA unloads stake in Juicy Juice |first=Max |last=Rothman |work=BevNet |date= 2 July 2014 |access-date= 16 March 2018}} 5. ^{{cite web |url= https://dealbook.nytimes.com/2014/07/02/nestl-agrees-to-sell-juicy-juice-brand-to-brynwood-partners/|title=Nestlé to sell Juicy Juice brand to Brynwood Partners |first=Chad |last=Bray|work=The New York Times|date=2 July 2014|access-date=15 March 2018}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1982/03/11/business/libby-to-sell-canning-business.html|title=Libby to Sell Canning Business|first=|last=|work=The New York Times|date=11 March 1982|access-date=15 March 2018}} 7. ^{{cite web |url= https://www.nytimes.com/1981/12/12/business/libby-says-it-will-sell-its-canning-operations.html|title=Libby says it will sell its canning operations|first=|last=12 December 1981|access-date=15 March 2018}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.sfgate.com/business/article/Tri-Valley-Growers-Sold-Off-in-Pieces-Del-Monte-2962377.php|title=Tri-Valley Growers sold off in pieces|first=Peter|last=Sinton|work=SF Gate|date=19 January 2001|access-date=15 March 2018}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=https://rbj.net/2006/07/28/seneca-foods-aims-to-buy-calif-firm/|title=Seneca Foods aims to buy Calif. firm |first=Janice |last=Pieterse|work=Rcohester Business Journal|date=28 July 2006 |access-date= 15 March 2018}} 10. ^[https://www.nytimes.com/1983/09/24/business/niagara-trading.html Niagara Trading] 11. ^Seneca's History {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131007221846/http://www.senecafoods.com/Company/history.shtml |date=2013-10-07 }} 12. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.foodonline.com/doc/international-home-foods-to-acquire-libbys-ca-0001|title=International Home Foods to Libby's canned meat products|first=|last=|work=Food Online|date=22 July 1998|access-date=14 March 2018}} 13. ^{{cite web|url=http://articles.latimes.com/2000/jun/24/business/fi-44271|title=ConAgra to buy International Home Foods|first=|last=|work=Los Angeles Times|date=24 June 2000|access-date=14 March 2018}} 14. ^ 15. ^LIBBYS. zumo, vitaplus, nectar, naranja, piña, melocoton, platano, zanahoria, tomate, catchup. ketchup, canarias, guayaba, fresa, manzana, sin azucar, fruta, dieta, canarias, tenerife, las palmas, leche, salud, multifruta, mango, albaricoque, tropica... 16. ^{{ cite web |author=Severson, Kim |title=Libby’s Warns of a Canned Pumpkin Shortage |url=http://dinersjournal.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/17/libbys-warns-of-a-canned-pumpkin-shortage/ |work=NYTimes.com |date=November 17, 2009 }} External links
