From its roots in Canutillo and the Upper Valley, Old El Paso grew from a hometown label into one of the country's best-known Mexican food brands. Food executive Tom Barwise, whose obituary ran Feb. 26, 1990, in the El Paso Times, is credited with co-founding the Old El Paso brand with Mountain Pass Canning and Valley Canning Co. owner James A. Dick. "Barwise began his wholesale grocery and canning in 1935 with the James A. Dick Co., where he held a number of positions, including that of vice president and sales manager.
