Sales recovery by frying from a major restaurant chain New Corona July 30 19:52

A major restaurant chain is looking for new strategies to recover the sales that have dropped significantly due to the new coronavirus.

At Skylark Holdings, sales of the family restaurant “Gust” fell sharply due to a decrease in the number of customers eating and drinking within the store due to the restraint of going out.

However, even so, take-out sales increased by 70% at the group's karaage specialty store, “Karatoshi”.

Since it is easy for the company to take it home and cooking at home is not necessary, we expect that demand for fried foods will continue to grow, and we started selling fried foods at four family restaurants in Tokyo on the 30th.

We have made it possible to order takeouts from terminals such as cash registers.

The company plans to increase the number of stores that sell fried foods after seeing that the effects of the new coronavirus will be prolonged and that severe food and drink in the stores will continue for the time being.

Mr. Yuki Kaneko, who is in charge of store operations in this area, said, “I think that it is a big challenge for the company as a whole, so I would like to lead the company as a whole. I want to connect them."
