Hikari Foods Service <138A>, the operator of the "Yakiton Daikoku" and "Tachinomi Sakatsubaki" dining chains, extended its rally for a fourth consecutive session on Wednesday. The company’s March sales update, released after Tuesday’s close, showed that same-store sales at its directly managed outlets rose 2.6% year-on-year, marking its fourth straight month of expansion.

Despite having one fewer public holiday compared to a year ago, performance was buoyed by unseasonably warm temperatures across Japan. Furthermore, store-level promotional events and a focus on improving Quality, Service, and Cleanliness (QSC) standards contributed to the steady growth in sales.
