About us

In 1958, our founder, Momofuku Ando created the world’s first instant noodles. On a trip to the U.S. in 1966, Mr. Ando noticed Americans curiously eating forkfuls of noodles out of cups, instead of using bowls and chopsticks. With that simple observation, the worldwide Cup Noodles® phenomenon was born. Shortly after, in 1970, Nissin officially put down its roots in the U.S. In 1972, our Gardena, CA, plant started production of Top Ramen®—the first instant ramen manufactured and sold in the U.S. And ever since, Nissin Foods USA has been creating jobs, launching careers and sharing the joy of noodles with the world.

    Did you know? Our Lancaster manufacturing plant (established in 1978) is home to over 80 cherry blossom trees that were introduced by our founder's wife, Masako Ando. These trees represent the heritage and connection we have to our roots as a Japanese company. During the first week of April, we were honored to have Japanese Ambassador Mikio Mori visit our Lancaster plant to experience the first blossoms on the property. Check out some of the amazing photos below!

    On any given day in Times Square, a visitor can sit for a street artist portrait, get his name printed on an M&M, watch the Naked Cowboy playing his guitar and run from a marauding band of Elmos. With excitement like that on offer, how many visitors notice the billboards? Hard to say, but the odds are good that tourists will take note of an ad that debuted last week. It’s the one with a cup of soup boogieing inside of a three-story tall microwave oven. This is how Nissin Foods has elected to drop its marketing dollars to advertise an innovation half a century in the making, Cup Noodles' new paper cup. https://adweek.it/4awQtZ3

    This week, Cup Noodles debuted a public service announcement (PSA) starring actor and comedian Craig Robinson that takes a comical and exaggerated look at the ramen cooking habit we all suspected – microwaving Cup Noodles. The PSA encourages fans to share their own #PaperCupConfessions now that they can conveniently prepare their noodles in the microwave. This packaging change to paper cup marks a significant milestone for Cup Noodles since its introduction to the U.S. market in 1973. The new paper cup is polystyrene-free and delivers even more convenience for our consumer fanbase as it is now microwavable.   Check out the press release and our PSA video below! https://lnkd.in/dK88Xs7z

    "I think of food as my calling." — Momofuku Ando. Today, we celebrate our founder, Momofuku Ando's birthday. From seeing the need to feed the world to bring peace and being the creator of instant ramen to growing Nissin Foods into a global brand today, we owe it all to the person with a passion for invention.
