“I’ve been one of OKAMI franchisees for many years and is one of the first few franchisees. I was first attracted by the innovative concept of All You Can Eat buffet, and this has been approved to be successful by the markets for years. The team have been very supportive from all aspects since day one, no matter what issues I faced.”

The Process
Have a question?
Can I own more than one franchise?
Yes, an increasing number of our Okami franchisees have more than one shop. Many of the franchisees would like to open another one after witnessing the success of the first one. It is a testimony to the quality of our business model.
Can I open a restaurant where I want?
You can choose your location to open the restaurant, but we need to determine whether it is suitable for our business, as per our previous experience and site evaluation. Once the location is approved, you can open your restaurant in that area.
How do I identify the right site/location?
A thorough site analysis will be conducted for a potential location, combined with the demographics of the areas, income level, traffic and our previous experience, etc. A profiling analysis and franchise plan will be provided for the location of interest before proceeding.
How long does usually take to start a business?
Approximatively, it will take at least 6 months to start a business. Including Property and Location Finding Phases, Permission and Facilities Application, Building and Construction, Preparation and Settlement, and Grand Opening Phases.
Who finds the site?
If you have a place which you look for, we will pass your location to our franchise team, and they will analyse and determine if it is a good place for our business. If you don’t have any idea, it is okay, we will find a good place for you.
Do you negotiate the lease with the landlord?
Yes, we would assist our franchisee with the negotiation with the landlords as required. With around 50 locations established and a strong brand reputation, we have stronger bargaining power and we always get a good deal.
I am interested and believe I qualify. What next?
Please fill out the application form today. We look forward to speaking with you and telling you more about what makes Okami different from other restaurants. We will explore together our new approach to a thriving Okami franchise and help you evaluate all the options.
Can I sell my business? Are there any restrictions that affect my right to do so?
Yes, you can sell the business you purchase, but the head office needs to evaluate the person you sell the business to if eligible for franchising.
What systems do you have in place for keeping franchisees in touch with you and each other? Do you hold regular Franchisee Meetings?
We have a very strong relationship with all the franchisees. Franchisees can reach us anytime individually by email, phone, and online chat, as well as face-to-face meetings at our office.
If I run into operational problems, I am unable to solve, what help and support can I expect?
As one of the biggest advantages of our franchising business model, franchisees will receive ongoing support and help from us, no matter in operational, managerial or marketing. Simply contact our franchise managers and talk about your issues, and we will help you resolve them.
