Matsuya Co., Ltd. ( (JP:8237) ) has shared an announcement.
Matsuya Co., Ltd. reported April 2026 monthly sales for its department store business, highlighting a clear divergence between its Ginza and Asakusa locations as well as by merchandise category. The Ginza Store recorded solid year‑on‑year sales gains, while the Asakusa Store continued to suffer sharp declines in both sales and customer traffic, underscoring uneven recovery in its store portfolio.
Category data showed strong growth in clothing and overall department store sales at Ginza, contrasted by steep drops in several categories at Asakusa, particularly apparel and related goods. These results suggest Matsuya’s performance is being driven by its prime urban flagship, while weaker regional demand and lower footfall at Asakusa pose challenges for balanced growth and may influence future resource allocation and store strategy.
