Skylark to Introduce Ghost Restaurants

Skylark Holdings is set to launch ghost restaurants in Japan, establishments focused on delivery and takeout without on-site dining areas. This comes as Japan prepares to lower the consumption tax rate on food consumed off-premises. Currently, the tax is 10% for food consumed inside restaurants, but will be reduced to 1% for delivery and takeout.
Skylark aims to adapt to changing consumer needs, developing new products and restaurant formats. The broader restaurant industry is also responding to a potential shift in demand towards meals consumed at home.
