ABC Kecap Manis is a quintessential Indonesian sweet soy sauce, renowned for its thick, syrupy consistency and deep caramel flavor. The brand was originally created by the Chu brothers (Chu Sam Yak and Chu Sek Yak) under PT ABC Central Food in Indonesia. It has become a staple in Southeast Asian cuisine, specifically for dishes like Nasi Goreng and Satay.
Today, the manufacturing is primarily focused in Indonesia, where it is produced using traditional fermentation methods combined with palm sugar. The brand holds a dominant market share in its home country and is exported globally to meet the demand for authentic Indonesian flavors.
Ownership of the brand transitioned in 1999 when the H.J. Heinz Company acquired a majority stake in PT ABC Central Food. Following the 2015 merger of Kraft and Heinz, the brand is currently managed by The Kraft Heinz Company. This global food titan, headquartered in the United States, oversees the brand's international distribution and ensures high quality standards across its diverse portfolio of condiments and sauces.
