Market Demand and Proven Success
While the overall hairdressing industry in Japan is slightly declining, the low-cost haircut specialty market is on the rise, driven by changing workstyles and an improved image.
Many of our stores in regional cities have seen continuous revenue and profit growth for over a decade, indicating that there’s still significant potential in local markets.
Potential for Hundreds or Thousands of New Salons
The number of stores that can be opened in each prefecture is more than 300 in Japan!
*If one store is opened per 70,000 population
Based on our track record, there should be many opportunities to open new salons in your country.
