Nielsen Packing was an Oakland-based cannery built in 1923, with its plant on 98th Avenue near an existing Palmolive plant. The plant was going to cost $300,000, and was expected to can 300,000 cans of fruits and tomatoes a year[1]. Officers were Emil H. Nielsen, President; P.A. Nielsen, Vice-President; and Emil H. Nielsen Jr., Secretary.
The company was still in existence in 1929 under the leadership of Emil H. Nielsen, Jr.[2]. Nelson was also the president of the Golden State Asparagus Company.
