WAGAYA is a Georgia-based restaurant company that provides full-service casual dining focused on traditional Japanese dishes and emphasizing a Teishoku style, where several dishes are served all together at once.
With Japanese chefs and immigrants coming to the United States less and less, it has become harder to open a sushi restaurant, despite the huge demand for diverse cuisine that has been dramatically increasing, especially in the cities. That’s why we’ve made it possible to partake in the trend and open one with our headquarter’s support and profound experience.
The business was founded by Takashi Otsuka as an owner and chef in 2015 to create a space where real Japanese food could be enjoyed every day by anyone! Due to the affordable price point, extensive menu, and casual setting, the model caters to wide demographics including lunch crowds, office workers, families, students, and young couples on any occasion, achieving a higher perceived value, higher average spending, and higher turnover.
Now he is looking for dedicated teammates from the restaurant industry who want to become successful together in a sustainable business model and love the WAGAYA philosophy. WAGAYA is offering entrepreneurs, chefs, and experienced restaurant employees a successful, turnkey operation using proven techniques, established processes, signature menus, and above-and-beyond customer service.
The franchise fee is $30,000 and the estimated average cost of the initial investment is $475,000.
