According to a private survey, the number of customers visiting restaurants in the target area during the seven days from the declaration of emergency to the three prefectures of the Tokyo metropolitan area decreased by nearly 70% compared to the same period last year. It was organized.


However, the rate of decrease is smaller than the decrease of 90% or more at the time of the state of emergency declaration in April last year.

Toreta, an IT company in Tokyo that provides reservation and customer management systems to restaurants, has announced that about 3,000 stores in the Tokyo metropolitan area, where the state of emergency was declared, will be open from the 8th to the 14th of this month. We investigated the change in the number of customers for 7 days until the day.



According to it, the number of customers has decreased by 68.6% compared to the same period last January.



By time of day,


▽ "between


11:00 am and 4:00 pm"

decreased by 44.2%,

▽ "between 5 pm and 7:00 pm" decreased by 74.2%,


▽ "8:00 pm"


The number of customers

from 8:00 pm to 11:00 pm decreased by 91.1%, and

the number of customers after 8:00 pm when shortening of business hours was requested has decreased significantly.



On the other hand, the number of customers in the week since the declaration of emergency in April last year has decreased by 92.7% from the same period of the previous year, and the rate of decrease this time is smaller than last year.



Naoko Sakurai, a data consultant at the company we surveyed, said, "If the movement to refrain from going out becomes stronger from next week, and if the number of lunch customers decreases and store closures spread, the number of customers may decrease further."
