The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.At Ginza Store, purchases by visitors from Taiwan, Thailand and other countries, the weaker yen, and strong sales of luxury-brand shoes and bags and high-priced women's apparel drove sales higher. Meanwhile, the number of visitors from China declined, mainly due to calls for people to refrain from traveling to Japan.
