Takashimaya Posts Broad-Based January Sales Growth as Core Stores and E-Commerce Advance

An announcement from Takashimaya Company ( (JP:8233) ) is now available.

Takashimaya reported a solid increase in January 2026 sales across its department store network, with total sales at 14 stores up 6.7% year on year and customer traffic rising 1.3%, while its 12 core stores saw sales climb 7.0%. Growth was driven by strong performances at major urban stores such as Nihombashi, Osaka and Yokohama, as well as a 15.7% gain in e-commerce, partially offset by sharp declines at the Sakai store, which closed on January 7, and weaker results in its corporate and cross-media businesses.

By product category, clothing, personal items, household goods and food all recorded year-on-year sales gains, underscoring broad-based consumer demand in the group’s physical stores. The closure of the Sakai store and soft corporate and cross-media revenues highlight an ongoing shift in Takashimaya’s revenue mix toward its core metropolitan locations and online channels, signaling a continued strategic focus on higher-traffic areas and digital growth.

The most recent analyst rating on (JP:8233) stock is a Buy with a Yen2612.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Takashimaya Company stock, see the JP:8233 Stock Forecast page.
