Matsuya Kozaiga Store to Close Permanently at 3:00 PM on June 15, 2026

As of 8:54 AM on June 11, 2026, the store data on Matsuya’s official website reflected a closure notice for Matsuya Kozaiga Store (0388, 573-9 Kozaiga, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture). The note “*Closing at 3:00 PM on June 15. Thank you for your patronage.” was appended to the end of the store name, and June 15, 2026 (Monday) at 3:00 PM was registered as the closure date and time. No reopening date has been set, so this is treated as a permanent closure rather than a temporary one. As of today, only 4 days remain until closure.

Closure Summary

Item	Details
Store Name	Matsuya Kozaiga Store
Store Code	0388
Address	573-9 Kozaiga, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture
Closure Date/Time	3:00 PM, Monday, June 15, 2026
Business Hours (current listing until closure)	5:00 AM to 2:00 AM the following day *Temporary closure June 12: 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM the following day
Co-located Brand	None (both before and after the change)
Official Listing	Matsuya Kozaiga Store *Closing at 3:00 PM on June 15. Thank you for your patronage.

This follows the closure pattern that includes a note of gratitude — “Thank you for your patronage” — which differs in structure from a temporary renovation closure (where a “Reopening at [time] on [date]” note is also included). The day before closure, June 12, also has a scheduled nighttime temporary closure (10:00 PM to 8:00 AM the following day), meaning the closure week is set to see a phased reduction in operations: regular business, followed by a partial nighttime closure, followed by permanent closure at 3:00 PM on June 15.

Matsuya’s Network in Wakayama Prefecture (Moving to a 6-Store Lineup After Closure)

As of today, seven Matsuya locations are operating in Wakayama Prefecture. With the closure of Kozaiga Store, the prefecture will move to a six-store lineup, and within Wakayama City, the four existing stores (Kinokawa Ohashi Store, Kozaiga Store, Wakayama Mukai Store, and Wakayama Kano Store) will drop to three.

Category	Existing Stores
Wakayama City (3-store lineup after closure)	Kinokawa Ohashi Store (0327), Wakayama Mukai Store (1724), Wakayama Kano Store (1984, co-located with Matsunoya)
Wakayama City (closing this time)	Kozaiga Store (0388)
Iwade City	Iwade Store (0710, co-located with My Curry Shokudo)
Kainan City	Kainan Store (1757)
Arida-gawa Town	Arida Inter Store (2074, co-located with Matsunoya)

Kozaiga Store belongs to a store-code range (0388) associated with an early group of Wakayama Prefecture locations, and by store code it stands alongside Kinokawa Ohashi Store (0327) as one of the longstanding stores in the prefecture. With this closure, Wakayama City will shift to a three-store operation: Wakayama Kano Store co-located with Matsunoya, and Kinokawa Ohashi Store and Wakayama Mukai Store as standalone locations.

Two Wakayama Prefecture Stores Change Status Simultaneously at 3:00 PM on June 15

As of today, Kozaiga Store is the only Matsuya location in June confirmed in the official store data as undergoing a “permanent closure” (a full end of operations rather than a temporary closure). At that same time — 3:00 PM on June 15 — another Wakayama Prefecture location, Matsuya Iwade Store (0710), is registered to enter a temporary renovation closure, meaning the Wakayama Matsuya network will see two stores change status at the same moment.

Date	Store	Type
3:00 PM, June 15, 2026	Matsuya Kozaiga Store (0388, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture; this closure)	Permanent Closure (End of Operations)
3:00 PM, June 15, 2026	Matsuya Iwade Store (0710, Iwade City, Wakayama Prefecture)	Entering Temporary Closure (Scheduled to reopen at 6:00 PM on June 24)

At the same moment Kozaiga Store ends operations, Iwade Store will also step away temporarily for renovation, meaning two Wakayama Matsuya locations are simultaneously off the active roster. Iwade Store is scheduled to return with its reopening at 6:00 PM on June 24, but Kozaiga Store will not return. Around 3:00 PM on June 15, the number of operating Matsuya locations in Wakayama Prefecture will go from seven to (momentarily) five, before Iwade Store returns and the prefecture heads into the latter half of June with a six-store lineup.
