KIKKOMAN CONTINUING TO LOOK OUTSIDE JAPAN FOR GROWTH

摘要

Domestic markets show little sign of expanding, and Kikkoman continues to look outside Japan for growth opportunities. "We are globalizing operations," says Yuzaburo Mogi, Chairman and CEO of Kikkoman, where markets outside Japan account for 45% of total sales and about 60% of operating income. Last year Kikkoman participated in Expo 2010 Shanghai China, operating a Japanese restaurant called "Murasaki," or purple-the color of soy sauce.
