Demand for sushi in our health-conscious society keeps growing. With more than twenty years of experience in developing Japanese restaurant, we are looking for self-motivated individuals who are entrepreneurial, and have sufficient capital to invest. We are actively seeking franchisees who either possess a genuine interest in being involved in their business to provide the hands-on control required to satisfy customers and staff or individuals who are interested in being inactive investors looking for sound returns from a minority ownership position.

As well, franchisor offers proprietary market research and comprehensive marketing support, all the tools needed for you to make your sales grow

A comprehensive, continually updated Confidential Operations Manual forms the heart of each Ichiban Sushi House Restaurants' franchise system. All management functions are periodically analysed, and revised as necessary.
Ichiban Sushi House Restaurant schedules periodic visits and counselling by experienced operations field staff who will liaise with franchisees or designated members of restaurant management on operational and promotional matters. All franchisees gather together for periodic meetings to discuss new programs, exchange ideas on policies, procedures and operational techniques, and to communicate with senior management of Prime Restaurants. These conferences also provide an opportunity to socialize with other Prime Restaurants' franchisees and staff.

Centralized purchasing and distribution ensures the highest levels of quality with the best possible value.
