Business Details
ANRAKUTEI is a brand offering reasonably-priced yakiniku in an open, suburban-style space. Shichirinbo is the group's second core yakiniku brand, set at a higher average customer spend than ANRAKUTEI and featuring more private rooms for a calmer dining experience. Stores are operated through directly-managed, noren (licensed), and franchise formats, with a focus on menu development and sales strategies that pursue both cost performance and experiential value while maintaining a commitment to serving natural (non-processed) meat. As of the end of FY2026 (ending March 2026), the number of stores stood at 152 (107 directly-managed, 11 noren, 34 franchise).
Recent Overview
Both net sales and profit declined significantly year on year, amid business format conversions and closures of unprofitable stores
In FY2026 (ending March 2026), net sales came to ¥10,673 million (down 6.1% year on year) and segment profit was ¥275 million (down 40.8% year on year), a significant deterioration. The company converted 4 ANRAKUTEI stores into Volks (Steak) and Shabu-Shabu Dontei formats, and also closed stores, mainly unprofitable ones. Despite deploying sales promotion measures such as strengthening the "Meat Day Campaign" and the "& Yakiniku Series," rising consumer frugality along with higher raw material and labor costs squeezed profitability, and the segment's declining share within the group has continued.
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Promoting routine store visits through cost-performance appeals such as the regularized "Meat Day Campaign" and the "& Yakiniku Series"
- Improving customer satisfaction through expanded services such as free refills of rice and soup for both lunch and dinner
- Enhancing high-value-added menu items through store-limited sales of branded wagyu (such as Matsusaka beef)
- Strengthening customer acquisition for "yakiniku banquets" by expanding banquet courses to capture year-end and New Year party demand
- Revitalizing stores through renovation of existing stores and review of business formats within the group
- Maintaining "safety and peace of mind" brand value by continuing to offer natural (non-processed) meat
Risks
- Rapidly declining profitability, with net sales down 6.1% and segment profit down 40.8% year on year
- Continued decline in store count and in-group share due to business format conversions (conversion of 4 ANRAKUTEI stores to Volks and Shabu-Shabu Dontei)
- Profit pressure from soaring raw material prices and energy costs
- Risk of declining customer traffic due to heightened consumer frugality amid price increases
- Increased selling, general and administrative expenses due to labor shortages and rising labor costs
