TOKYO, Jan 08 (Pulse News Wire) – Matsuya CO.,LTD. (8237.T) reported a decline in sales for December 2025, with overall revenue decreasing by approximately 10.8% compared to the previous year.
The drop was particularly pronounced at its flagship Ginza store, which saw a reduction of 10.1%, while the Asakusa store experienced a steeper decline of 20.1%. Excluding duty-free sales, domestic customers contributed positively to the performance, especially women's clothing items, which showed strong growth of around 8%.

Other notable changes included a slight rise in food sales and a modest improvement in dining services.
