Nikken makes a move

Prepared Foods, April, 2002

Nikken Foods Company, headquartered in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, has moved their St. Louis distribution center, LILAR Corporation, to a new 20,000 sq. ft. office and warehouse facility to a new location in that city. The move is expected to increase the efficiency of services such as sample and product order fulfillment, inventory management and shipment to customers throughout North America and the Caribbean.

LILAR Corporation soon will complete an on-site, fully equipped test kitchen to be staffed by Nikken trained research and development technicians to assist food manufacturers in developing formulas utilizing Nikken products.

Nikken Foods has been marketing natural and savory flavors, including dried seafood and vegetable powders, meat and poultry powders, and a wide variety of soy sauce powdered products, in the U.S. for more than 25 years.
