Our 50th Year of Brewing
This year, we’re celebrating our 50th year of brewing Kikkoman Soy Sauce in the U.S. And that’s just one chapter of a story that goes back more than three centuries.
Our golden anniversary of brewing Soy Sauce in the United States is a major milestone—one of many in our company’s long history. The first of those actually happened way back in the mid-1600s, when a resourceful family set up a soy sauce brewery in the farming community of Noda along the Edo River, not far from what is now Tokyo. Today, nearly twenty generations later, the descendants of that family still run what has become Kikkoman, one of the world’s leading soy sauce brands.
