Comment by Takafumi Horie

I am pleased to announce that we will be setting up a booth for "WAGYUMAFIA" at the "PSG JAPAN TOUR 2023" Hospitality Village. Additionally, I will be participating in the talk sessions held in the Hospitality Area.
I believe there are valuable insights for both football enthusiasts and business perspectives in the fact that great overseas teams such as Paris Saint-Germain FC, FC Internazionale Milano, and Al Nasr FC are coming to Japan, and that tickets offering world-class hospitality are being sold. As a football fan and from a business standpoint, I decided to participate because I feel there are hints that can contribute to the future of the sports industry.
While Japan has achieved a level of competitiveness in various sports that can compete globally, I believe what is lacking the most is sports business. I think it's about entertaining the audience beyond the competition itself. That's why I believe sports hospitality should be more widespread in Japan.
By participating in such an event during the timing when top-level teams from around the world are visiting Japan, I hope to contribute to the development of sports business in Japan.
Limited quantities of "WAGYUMAFIA" Katsu sandwiches will be offered as a gift at select hospitality venues throughout the entire event. I invite you to enjoy delicious meat while experiencing sports hospitality firsthand, and I pray for the advancement of the sports industry in Japan!

About the legendary Katsu Sandwich of WAGYUMAFIA
WAGYUMAFIA THE CUTLET SANDWICH, which opened in 2017 in Nakameguro, became the world's first dedicated wagyu sandwich shop. It attracts guests from over 30 countries around the world daily and has become one of Tokyo's popular tourist destinations. The Kobe Beef Champion's Cutlet Sandwich, priced at over 100,000 yen, consistently sells out due to high demand and requires advance reservations. In 2018, it was recognized as one of the world's signature dishes in the sandwich category and gained recognition as a global brand. This signature menu item played a pivotal role in WAGYUMAFIA's global debut.

About TeruzushiAbout Teruzushi

"Teruzushi" was established in Tobata-ku, Kitakyushu City in 1964. The second-generation owner transformed the local sushi shop into a large-scale establishment, and currently, the third-generation owner, Mr. Takiyoshi Watanabe, carries on the tradition. At the young age of 28, Watanabe became the third-generation owner and cherishes the tradition of Edo-style sushi passed down from his predecessor. However, what Watanabe aspires to create is a unique experience that can only be found at "Teruzushi." The restaurant, often referred to as a "sushi theater," has quickly gained a reputation, attracting not only domestic guests but also visitors from abroad.
