SFP Holdings Co.Ltd. ( (JP:3198) ) has shared an update.

Create restaurants holdings inc. and its consolidated subsidiary SFP Holdings Co., Ltd. have agreed to an absorption-type merger that will make create restaurants the surviving entity and SFP Holdings the disappearing company. The transaction, slated to become effective on July 1, 2026 pending SFP shareholder approval, will also see SFP shares delisted from the Tokyo Stock Exchange in late June.

The companies, which already share joint ventures for back-office and store-related functions, aim to fully integrate management resources to respond faster to structural pressures in Japan’s restaurant and izakaya markets. By eliminating listed-subsidiary governance frictions and consolidating human, financial, and operational capabilities, the merger is intended to improve efficiency, strengthen group-wide strategy execution, and better navigate rising costs and shifting consumer behavior.
