New Store Growth (Domestic)

New Store Openings (Domestic)

Optimizing Recovery of Investment through Rigorous Location Selection
Our Group is strategically promoting new store openings in the domestic market as a source of further growth, while maintaining our robust store network of 3,000 domestic locations. The environment surrounding the restaurant industry is becoming increasingly uncertain, due to recent surges in construction costs, labor shortages, and prolonged inflation associated with geopolitical risks. Under these circumstances, rather than simply pursuing an expansion path based on store opening targets, we are steering toward a highly reliable store opening policy with rigorously selected locations, prioritizing the rapid recovery of investment and maximization of area profitability for new stores.
