Kura Sushi USA operates a chain of Japanese revolving sushi restaurants in the U.S. The restaurants use a conveyor belt format where freshly prepared sushi and other Japanese dishes circulate through the dining room at a fixed price of around $3.79 per plate. Guests can also order on-demand via tableside touchscreens, with items delivered by a separate express belt. The concept is technology-forward: robots deliver drinks and condiments, kitchen automation reduces the need for skilled chefs, and proprietary "Mr. Fresh" domes protect each plate on the belt. Kura Sushi also runs periodic IP collaboration campaigns — partnerships with anime, gaming, and pop culture brands — to drive traffic. Revenue is driven by guest traffic, plates consumed per visit, menu price increases, and new restaurant openings. Kura Sushi operates 82 restaurants across 22 states and targets above 20% annual unit growth, with management seeing long-term potential for over 290 U.S. locations. The operational model is designed to minimize labor relative to a traditional restaurant, with the belt system and kitchen automation reducing staffing needs. Kura Sushi USA is a subsidiary of Japan-based Kura Japan, which owns a 67% combined voting stake and licenses key technology and trademarks to the U.S. business. Kura Japan operates over 650 revolving sushi restaurants internationally.
