The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.The groups captured demand for dining out during the summer and Obon holidays. In the 串カツ田中グループ, the new signature offering, “What if Tanaka Tried a Yakitori-Style Menu,” contributed to the increase in customer numbers, while in the ピソラグループ, limited-edition craft products and the “all-you-can-eat pizza” option at weekday lunch contributed to the increase.
