In preparation for rapid growth across multiple brands, JINYA Holdings, Inc. announced today that the company has partnered with REAL Companies – a strategic growth advisory service – as its real estate partner.
Through the partnership, REAL Companies will assist in the real estate process for corporate and franchisee growth for JINYA Holdings’ brands – JINYA Ramen Bar and bushi by JINYA. In addition to market analysis, site selection and transactional assistance, REAL Companies will be responsible for leveraging their relationships, providing rare access to some of the strongest retail properties in the United States.
“As we get ready to quickly grow our brands, we wanted to work with a real estate partner we confidently believe can help us achieve our expansion goals, said JINYA Holdings CEO Tomo Takahashi. “Both JINYA Ramen Bar and bushi by JINYA are extremely attractive to landlords, and we want our franchisees to have access to the best real estate. The REAL Companies’ team combines innovative data analytics with in-depth experience to grow brands. Their excellent tools and expertise are going to be a driving force in expanding our concepts nationwide.”
This year, JINYA Holdings is slated to open a total of 15 domestic and international restaurants throughout Arizona, California, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Vancouver, Canada.
