TENPOS HOLDINGS Co., Ltd. operates primarily in the restaurant equipment sales and restaurant management support sectors in Japan. Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Tokyo, the company offers a comprehensive range of products and services including new and recycled kitchen equipment, tableware, cooking utensils, chairs, and interior and exterior design and construction services for restaurants. Its operations are organized into three main business segments: product sales, information services, and restaurant business. The product sales segment includes both direct sales and online sales through its e-commerce platform Tempos.com; the information services segment encompasses human resources referral, staffing, outsourcing, and POS system development; and the restaurant segment operates steak and sushi restaurant chains through subsidiaries like Asakuma and Yamato Sakana.
Recent major changes include robust growth in the restaurant business segment, with sales increasing by 69.2% in the fiscal year ended April 2025, driven notably by the acquisition and expansion of sushi delivery service Sunrise Service Co., Ltd., scheduled for July 2025. The company is aggressively expanding its nationwide store network aiming for 300 stores specializing in kitchen equipment and product sectors, developing specialized stores focused on ramen, confectionery, bakery, and supermarkets. Tenpos Holdings also emphasizes digital transformation with strengthened e-commerce operations and new online sales sites targeted at corporate restaurant customers starting next fiscal year.
Other recent strategic initiatives involve expanding sales collaboration, launching new high-function POS and mobile ordering systems to address labor-saving demands, and human resource development with planned openings of Japanese language schools in Southeast Asia. Tenpos Holdings also pursues sustainability as a core mission, promoting circular economy practices by recycling used kitchen equipment and supporting restaurant survival rates through various consulting and diagnostic services. These changes underscore the company’s focus on domestic market dominance, business diversification, and technological innovation while expanding internationally through subsidiary and alliance activities.
