Three New Temporary Closure Notices in a Row Today
Today, June 17, the evening store data update brought a string of new temporary closure notices in succession. The 16:28 update added Matsuya Tenjin Store (store code 0553, Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City, Fukuoka Prefecture), closing from 15:00 on July 1 (Wednesday) and reopening at 15:00 on July 6 (Monday), about 5 days. The 17:28 update added Matsuya Kanayama Store (store code 0210, Naka-ku, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture), closing from 15:00 on July 1 (Wednesday) and reopening at 15:00 on July 9 (Thursday), about 8 days. Then the 18:28 update today added the store featured here (Okayama Station West Exit Store), closing from 15:00 on June 30 (Tuesday) and reopening at 15:00 on July 13 (Monday), about 13 days — three separate stores newly announced across three consecutive hours. Transit-hub stores in Fukuoka, Nagoya, and Okayama — all designated cities or prefectural capitals — were announced one after another.
Developments Within Okayama Prefecture and the Timing Overlap with Matsuya Okayama Toka-ichi Store
Within Okayama Prefecture, Matsuya Okayama Toka-ichi Store (store code 0747, 5-28 Toka-ichi Nishi-machi, Kita-ku, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture) has already been temporarily closed since entering renovation on June 15 for approximately 15 days, which includes the addition of a co-located Matsunoya, and is scheduled to reopen at 10:00 on June 30. The renovation of the store featured here (Okayama Station West Exit Store), beginning at 15:00 on June 30 (Tuesday), starts roughly 5 hours after that reopening — creating a handover-like pattern in which a Matsuya store within Okayama City closes just after another one reopens.
The Roughly 13-Day Renovation Period Is a Standard Length
The approximately 13-day renovation period falls within the standard range among recent comparable renovation cases (Oguchi Store: approx. 13 days; Higashi-Omiya Ekimae Store: approx. 13 days; Hakusan Store: approx. 16 days; Okayama Toka-ichi Store: approx. 15 days; Iwade Store: approx. 9 days; Nirasaki Store: approx. 12–13 days; Tenjin Store: approx. 5 days; Kanayama Store: approx. 8 days). The renovation details (such as new co-located brands or interior updates) are not disclosed in the store data, and whether the business format will change upon reopening cannot be confirmed from the official store list as of today.
Editor's Note
Three renovation notices in a row within three hours today — the store data has been unusually busy this evening. Within Okayama City, the timing overlaps: the West Exit store's closure begins just five hours after the Toka-ichi store's reopening, creating a handover-like changeover between the two locations.
