Business highlights.
A spacious 110 m² venue in Shinsaibashi/Amemura, combining vegan dining, a bar and facilities for live music, DJ sets, events, on-stage karaoke, etc.
Large windows overlook the busy Amemura street, while the practical layout gives a new owner flexibility to develop the food, drinks and events offering.
Key attractions:
* Company-held lease: monthly rent of ¥250,000 plus tax for approximately 110 m² (34 tsubo) in central Shinsaibashi/Amemura. Four-year contract with automatic renewal. These are particularly favourable terms for the size and location. The full lease is available for serious buyers to review.
* Growing sales: annual revenue increased 11.1% in the last year.
* Established reputation: Google rating of 4.8 stars from approximately 1,000 reviews, with a strong presence on HappyCow, Instagram and Facebook.
* Strong potential for further development and further increases in sales: opportunities involving the menu, increased seating capacity, food deliveries, afternoon café service, late-night drinks and events.
* Equipped venue: kitchen, bar, DJ/live-music equipment, two separate sound systems, on-stage karaoke facilities, a beautiful set of lights and lanterns, and 4 TVs.
* Operations: Four part time employees handle daily service, with very little daily owner involvement. Staff report stock levels through an established inventory checking system. Ordering takes a few minutes each week, and scheduling takes little time. These routines can be taught to staff during handover. The menu is interesting and satisfying, with dishes designed to be easy to prepare.
* Operating licences, bank accounts, fibre-optic internet, POS, supplier contracts.
* Potentially available Business Manager visa route for eligible buyers.
Opportunities for the next owner.
* Expand the ramen menu (e. g. tomato-miso, pumpkin, mushroom bases, premium toppings, rotating specials, etc. )
* Add more offerings (e. g. desserts, vegan karaage, vegan takoyaki, other savoury dishes, coffee and café offerings, etc. )
* Develop delivery sales through stronger menus and promotions.
* Build on the few events already organised by existing contacts (e. g. Sunday markets, live music, DJ nights, cultural events, influencer collaborations, etc. ).
* Introduce afternoon café service and develop late-night bar trading.
* Increase seating capacity.
* Improve street visibility with larger entrance signage.
* Develop targeted promotional campaigns and strengthen marketing.
