Matsuya Confirms Co-located Brands for 4 Stores Entering Temporary Closure Today at 3 PM (3 Matsunoya + 1 My Curry Shokudo)
On the afternoon of June 15, 2026, Matsuya’s official store list simultaneously added co-located brand designations to the names of the 4 stores that entered renovation-related temporary closure today, Monday, June 15, starting at 3 PM, confirming the post-renovation business format for each. The update also added temporary closure notices for 2 new stores entering closure on Monday, June 29 at 3 PM, making this a store list update spanning 6 stores across 6 prefectures.
Co-located Brands Confirmed for the 4 Stores Entering Closure Today at 3 PM
Co-located brand designations were simultaneously added to the names of the 4 stores entering temporary closure today. Matsuya Hakusan (0126) and Matsuya Okayama Tooka-ichi (0747) newly gained a Matsunoya co-location, having previously had none; Matsuya Iwade (0710) converted from its existing My Curry Shokudo co-location to a Matsunoya co-location; and Matsuya Asaka Higashiguchi (1722) newly gained a My Curry Shokudo co-location.
| Store | Prefecture | Co-location Before Renovation | Co-location After Renovation | Renovation Closure Period |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Matsuya Hakusan | Tokyo | (None) | Matsunoya | June 15, 3 PM – July 1, 10 AM |
| Matsuya Okayama Tooka-ichi | Okayama Prefecture | (None) | Matsunoya | June 15, 3 PM – June 30, 10 AM |
| Matsuya Iwade | Wakayama Prefecture | My Curry Shokudo | Matsunoya | June 15, 3 PM – June 24, 6 PM |
| Matsuya Asaka Higashiguchi | Saitama Prefecture | (None) | My Curry Shokudo | June 15, 3 PM – June 30, 10 AM |
Against 3 moves toward Matsunoya co-location, only 1 was a new My Curry Shokudo co-location. This suggests that while the trend toward Matsunoya co-location continues, new My Curry Shokudo co-locations haven’t come to a complete stop either.
The ‘My Curry Shokudo to Matsunoya’ Conversion Recurs at the Iwade Store
The conversion from an existing My Curry Shokudo co-location to a Matsunoya co-location recurred today at Matsuya Iwade (0710). Most recently, Matsuya Higashi-Omiya Ekimae (0498) entered temporary closure in the same pattern on June 4, 2026, so this marks a similar replacement occurring about 11 days later. This points to a continuing operational approach of narrowing the overall number of My Curry Shokudo co-locations while increasing Matsunoya co-locations.
2 New Temporary Closure Notices for June 29 at 3 PM
As new temporary closure notices for Monday, June 29 at 3 PM, Matsuya Tarumi (0867, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture) and Matsuya Sone (0932, Toyonaka City, Osaka Prefecture) were added, entering closure at the same time as a pair spanning 2 Kansai prefectures. The planned reopening dates are July 14 (Tuesday) at 3 PM for Tarumi, about 15 days later, and July 15 (Wednesday) at 6 PM for Sone, about 16 days later.
| Store | Prefecture | Temporary Closure Start | Reopening | Renovation Period |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Matsuya Tarumi | Hyogo Prefecture | June 29 (Mon), 3 PM | July 14 (Tue), 3 PM | About 15 days |
| Matsuya Sone | Osaka Prefecture | June 29 (Mon), 3 PM | July 15 (Wed), 6 PM | About 16 days |
As of today, neither store has yet received a co-located brand designation, leaving their post-renovation business format unconfirmed. In recent similar cases, co-located brand designations have consistently been confirmed on the evening of the closure start date itself, suggesting that the co-location plans for both stores will likely be confirmed in the June 29 update.
The ‘Reflecting Co-location Information Right After Closure Start’ Pattern Since May
Since May, a pattern has continued in which co-located brand designations get confirmed on the afternoon or evening of the same day a store enters renovation-related temporary closure. This time’s simultaneous confirmation for 4 stores was likewise reflected in the store list on the afternoon of the same day as today’s 3 PM closure start, marking the largest number of stores confirmed at once under this ongoing pattern. It also marks the point where the co-location plans for the Iwade and Asaka Higashiguchi stores — previously flagged in the May 29 notice — were concretely confirmed.
Editor's Note
Confirming the business format for 4 stores in a single update is the largest batch on record. The Iwade store's conversion from My Curry Shokudo to Matsunoya is the second such case after the Higashi-Omiya Ekimae store, suggesting the pace of these conversions is picking up.
