FamilyMart Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Tateo Kotani) will celebrate its 45th anniversary in September 2026. Under the slogan 'Ichiban Challenge' (No. 1 Challenge), the company is building upon its five key pillars. As part of its mission to provide the 'most delicious' experience, FamilyMart has completed the rollout of its industry-first, new coffee machines to approximately 16,400 stores nationwide by June 2, 2026, delivering the highest quality coffee in its history.
Key features include: - Record-breaking menu: The number of available items has increased from 15 to 45, with plans to reach 60 by the end of 2026. - Highest-rated quality: Consumer monitoring tests confirm that coffee from these machines offers the highest preference, aroma, and richness since 2021. - Barista-supervised technique: The system reproduces the hand-drip technique of World Brewers Cup 2016 champion Tetsu Kasuya through a redesigned extraction mechanism that ensures uniform water distribution.
- New LL Size: Following positive test results, where sales increased by about 8%, FamilyMart is launching an LL size to cater to trends such as 'large drinks' and the 'sipping' style, where consumers enjoy coffee over a longer duration.
