Business Content

Our company's four business activities are: 1) operation of directly managed MINATOYA COFFEE shops, which are large suburban coffee shops mainly in Mie Prefecture; 2) operation of franchise headquarters; 3) confectionary production and sales; and 4) development of a "CAFE business management system" based on our expertise in coffee shop management.

Our large coffee shops, set up in the suburbs, are dedicated to providing a stylish and comfortable space and have been well received not only for coffee but also for a wide variety of menu items. In addition, the area's baumkuchen confectionary, jointly developed with the Mie Prefectural Government's Mie Innovation Division, is gaining popularity as a Mie souvenir foodstuff at Ise Jingu and other tourist spots.

In recent years, we have been focusing on the development of our "CAFE Business Management System" (4). This system will reduce complex tasks for store managers and enable smooth and productive store management for franchise stores as well as individuals. In the future, we would like to explore demand for the system overseas and to support the opening of cafes not only in Japan but also around the world.
