These days, knowing where food products come from is more important than ever. And when it comes to soy sauce, we’ve got a great story to tell.
Kikkoman was founded in Japan over three centuries ago. And for more than 50 years, we have been
producing Kikkoman® Soy Sauce for the North American market right here in the United States using only North American ingredients.
We brew our Soy Sauce in Wisconsin and California using local water, US soybeans, US wheat, and North American salt.

And even though our pristine production facilities use state-of-the-art technology, we still follow the same centuries-old brewing process we’re
famous for. It’s a process that transforms simple ingredients into a complex, umami-rich, all-purpose seasoning through the magic of
fermentation, much like the way fine wine or beer is crafted.
What does all that mean for you? One word: trust. With Kikkoman, you can count on authentic flavor, aroma, and quality with every bottle.


Brewing our authentic soy sauce in America helps us source locally, reduce our carbon footprint, and ensure a reliable supply—advantages imported brands can’t always offer.
And as you think about special dietary and nutritional needs, you can count on that same quality across our full line of soy sauce options, including less-sodium, gluten-free, non-GMO, and organic—all traditionally brewed here in the USA.
So, when you think soy sauce, consider the source—and go with the home-brewed brand you can always count on Kikkoman, America’s #1 Soy Sauce. Brewed and loved in the USA for over 50 years.
