Kikkoman Foods, Inc.(KFI) held commemorative events from June 6 to 7,to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its Wisconsin plant. To mark the occasion, the U.S.-Japan Food Distribution Symposium and Wisconsin-U.S.-Japan Economic Development Conference were held at the Abbey Resort in Fontana, Wisconsin. The Wisconsin plant was Kikkoman's first U.S. base for the manufacture of soy sauce and made its first shipment in 1973. Since then, it has grown into one of the world's largest plants for naturally brewed soy sauce and today serves as a foothold for the international business that now makes up nearly half of the Kikkoman Group.
