Main franchisor
Kobe Bussan
（operates Gyomu Super supermarkets）
We have produced and supported more than 300
Gyomu Super stores throughout Japan
Kobe Bussan is the franchisor of Gyomu Super, a store chain with 937 locations nationwide (as of August 2021). We have been supporting their franchise business for many years.
We have produced more than 300 Gyomu Super stores to date. We take into account the characteristics of each franchisee and the regional characteristics of the stores they open. This has resulted in success for these stores.
The appeal of Gyomu Super, which has been featured extensively in the media in recent years, is their highly original private brand products and products directly imported from overseas that are rarely seen in ordinary supermarkets.
Matching business opportunities are not limited to Japan. Looking from Japan to the rest of the world, there are always “cool” Japanese businesses and brands that can compete well overseas. Conversely, importing products from overseas opens up opportunities for completely new values and know-how to take root in Japan.
Point
Service details
There are many foreign companies that want to introduce highly reputable Japanese brands overseas. We help high-quality, high-technology Japanese brands to expand their business overseas, contributing to the development of companies and the spread of Japanese culture.
The expansive variety of cultures and trends around the world mean there are also many attractive business categories and products that could be successful if brought to Japan. Supporting the introduction of innovative brands from around the world to Japan is one of our specialties.

Benjamin Steakhouse
Renowned New York steak restaurant opened
in Roppongi, Tokyo
Benjamin Prelvukaj, who was the manager of Peter Luger Steak House, a long-established steakhouse in Brooklyn since 1887, and Arturo Mcleod, a veteran chef for more than 20 years, teamed up to open Benjamin Steakhouse in New York.
We planned the Japan opening of this famous steakhouse, which attracts celebrities from all over the world, and launched it in Roppongi, Tokyo in June 2017. The restaurant is fully equipped with an aging room and offers customers carefully selected aged meats using Chef Arturo Mcleod’s top-secret dry aging method.
We have a proven track record in preparing buildings for new store openings and renovations. We select appropriate designers and supervise drawings, and we create sales floors that consider customer flow lines and offices and kitchens that are easy to use. We can also construct the interior as well, creating a suitable environment for the grand opening of the store.

Creating stores that lead to increased sales and a comfortable atmosphere
In commercial facilities such as supermarkets, besides appearance, also crucial are high functionality and the selling zone layout, both of which facilitate the daily operation of the store and lead directly to increased sales. Our detailed design supervision and construction work, all taking into account the customer’s point of view, makes stores comfortable for workers and customers alike.
We provide full support for both new and renovated restaurants, including drafting the restaurant business, selecting the property, constructing the restaurant, and recruiting staff. We can also introduce you to the most suitable support companies to meet your needs, thus ensuring smooth operation from the start.
Service details
Draft a profit plan and optimal business model
We use a geographic information system to select locations and properties, and we formulate business plans and profit plans. We listen to our clients’ needs and ensure all parties are satisfied, and we back them in their new challenges.
Proposals for menus, fixtures, and equipment
Our professional staff will be happy to help you develop your drink and food menu lineup. Please feel free to consult us about fixtures and equipment such as glasses and plates.
Store design and construction
We can not only introduce store designers that match the direction you are aiming for, but also supervise floor plans and kitchen drawings, provide support for design work, and even carry out a final pre-opening inspection.
Design and selection of various tools
To open a restaurant, you need more than just a building. Leave it to us to design and supervise the production of logos, menus, uniforms, promotional tools, and more.
Supervise training for staff
We can prepare manuals and supervise basic operations to ensure the smooth management of your store. If necessary, we can also arrange service courses and training for your staff.
Follow-up after opening and renovation
Our support continues even after store opening and store renovations. We provide support from various angles, such as research on competing stores and proposals for sales promotion and advertising.
When opening a new Gyomu Super or a new restaurant, we recommend that you consider the environment. In addition to energy-saving measures in the workplace, such as solar power generation systems and outdoor paints with high thermal barrier effect, we recommend you strive for green management of your store.

We promote the use of renewable energy in stores by introducing customers to the Solar Joint Purchasing System, an original service from partner company Passport, Ltd. The highly reliable, high-quality solar cells used in the system are made by Kyocera. For a long-term warranty service, we recommend the Premium Package contract, which includes a 20-year output guarantee.
Adgreencoat is a highly functional paint that provides a thermal barrier effect by simply applying it to the roof and walls when constructing a store. Because it cools down the entire building, it makes it possible to operate the air conditioner at a higher temperature, leading to power savings and energy efficiency. We encourage the creation of stores that are friendly to the environment.
