Yes. Kikkoman has a factory in Walworth, Wisconsin, not far from where my folks had a summer home. One of their neighbors worked for them.

YES!

Yes!

Pretty!

I assume that the can is full of cooking oil, but what's the green thing in the middle?

I was thinking it was three different sized containers: a bottle for home use, a can for restaurants, and a small barrel with a basket-weave design for small industrial applications. Really, I have no idea.

the can is still soy sauce, you can get the big cans at places like sam's club or costco. the green thing is the barrel in which they age the soy sauce, and ship to the bottling plant, i suppose they could sell it like that too.

and YES it is a beautiful ad!
