Group structural reforms
We plan to introduce reforms from October 1, 2007 to promote Group management and to facilitate the achievement of the medium-term business plan goals.
Shift to pure holding company
To maximize the value of the Yoshinoya Group, we plan to establish a pure holding company that will be dedicated to formulating strategy and coordinating overall management of the Group.
Introduction of executive officer system
We plan to establish an executive officer system. This move has two aims: to contribute to higher corporate value by helping to clarify authority and areas of responsibility for execution of the plan, and to help cultivate management talent at the executive level.
Objectives
Strengthen Group management functions
With a holding company dedicated to Group management, we expect to reinforce and focus our market intelligence-gathering capabilities while also improving other management functions such as formulation of Group strategy.
Exploit intra-Group synergies
We plan to exploit synergies through the use of common processes and systems and the integration of various organizational structures.
Simplify business reorganization and M&A
We plan to pursue business reorganization and mergers with other firms as one element of Group strategy.
Speed up management and clarify responsibilities via separation of oversight and execution
We expect to achieve higher growth by enabling operating companies to focus on the core business.
