Founded in 1903, HP is a UK based condiment company specializing in brown sauces. Their fruity sauce was introduced in 1969, and according to “Kitchen Hoarder / Bathroom Hoarder” this specific packaging which makes use of Henrietta likely stems from the 1980s. Fitting with the timeline, the HP logotype bears a striking resemblance to Cortez, however, the proportions appear slightly different. The small text at the bottom is set in Univers.
