With the consumption tax rate raised on the 1st of next month, retail stores and restaurants are also being prepared in Miyajima, a sightseeing spot in Hiroshima where the world heritage Itsukushima Shrine is located.

Among them, a confectionery shop in Hiroshima Island, Miyajima, Hatsukaichi City, which sells specialty items such as Momiji Manju, is preparing for an increase in the daily consumption tax rate.

This store will reduce the price of the mainstay Momiji Manju to prevent customers from staying after the tax increase and make the price of “in-house eating and drinking” the same as “take-out”. Because price including tax changes, we prepared new price tag.

For this reason, a new cash register corresponding to the reduced tax rate was introduced for Western confectionery, and confirmation work was carried out on the 30th.

On the other hand, this store is eaten by many deer in Miyajima, so we don't have a sticker to explain the new price, but we want to explain it to customers in an oral manner to prevent confusion.

Mr. Tsutomu Kimura, the owner of the confectionery shop “Kimura”, said, “The response to the reduced tax rate is complicated and I think it will make a small company cry. Still, I want to prepare to entertain many tourists.”
