About Yoshinoya.
Yoshinoya was born in 1899 under the ingenuity of its founder, a Japanese, named Eikichi Matsuda, Our story begins at Nihonbashi, a humble first market in Chuo-Ku, Tokyo, on the outskirts of Edo Castle where Mr. Matsuda created a delicious recipe of beef and rice known as Gyudon (Beef bowl). Named for his birthplace of Yoshino-Cho, Osaka, Mr. Matsuda’s restaurant featured delicious, affordable and fast meals. It’s was an entirely new concept in Japanese culture, and both the hard-working fisherman and market visitors embraced it. Yoshinoya was an instant hit. In 1923, Japan was hit by the Great Kanto Earthquake and Yoshinoya had to move to tsukiji with the rest of the fish market and throngs of hungry patrons continued to enjoy Yoshinoya’s original gyudon, or Beef Bowl.

In 1946, Mizuho Matsuda, son of Eikichi Matsuda, turned the business into a 24-hour restaurant and rapidly gained wide spread popularity in Japan. In 1958 it became a corporate company operating on a chain store system. Yoshinoya boasts of more than 100 years of tradition. Yoshonoya has grown to be one of the most important brands in Japan and boasts of more than 1,000 outlets, making it one of the biggest fast-food chains in Japan. To date, there are more than 1,200 outlets around the world, namely
Japan, USA, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Indonesia and the Philippines. Soon, it will open in Thailand and Vietnam as part of its expansion program in the Asian region.
