Yoshinoya

QSR

Yoshinoya America is a wholly owned subsidiary of Yoshinoya Holdings, based in Japan. With a history that dates back to 1899 and more than 2200 stores worldwide, Yoshinoya Holdings has been both leader and innovator in the QSR Japanese segment. The American subsidiary has over 100 stores (over 70 company owned) and is Southern California's best kept secret. Yoshinoya America has quietly reinvented itself over the past 4 years under a new leadership team. Comp store sales are up 25% during this period, reversing 5 years of sales declines. That's 150% better than the QSR segment! We have rebranded our stores, broadened our appeal, introduced new products, revamped our operating systems, and have remodeled more than half our stores. We will complete the remodels in the coming months and are now building the infrastructure to support rapid new store growth in California and beyond. You owe it to yourself to take a closer look at Yoshinoya and use our turnaround as your springboard to new career opportunities.
