Our symbol & slogan of the Mizkan Group is inspired by the global company vision of tradition and innovation. The Mizkan name and green logo symbolize our commitment to over 200 years of heritage and continual focus on market leadership. Our mark shows the three bars which represent flavor, aroma, and consistency and the circle that represents the perfect balance of these characteristics in making quality liquid condiments.
Mr. Nakano named his company the Mitsukan Group. In the years that followed, superior products and visionary leadership helped Mitsukan grow and thrive. In the late 1970s Mitsukan expanded from Japan into the United States and began acquiring regional condiment companies. In 1995, in honor of its founder, the U.S. arm of the business changed its name to Nakano Foods, Inc.
