Daimaru Fukuoka Tenjin rebuilds its basement deli floor around 24 brands, led by a fish-deli shop it calls a first for Japan
Daimaru's Fukuoka Tenjin store is re-tenanting its East Building basement food floor around 24 deli brands between now and mid-December, headlined by a fish-deli counter the department store brands a nationwide first -- a rebuild of the traffic engine every Japanese department store depends on.

Daimaru Matsuzakaya Department Stores, Inc. (株式会社大丸松坂屋百貨店) said it is rebuilding the deli section of the East Building basement-two (B2) food floor at its Daimaru Fukuoka Tenjin (大丸福岡天神店) store around a total of 24 brands, with new tenants opening in sequence from November through December -- though it cautions opening dates may still change. The fresh-produce side of the same floor is not part of the renovation, the company said. It is the second phase of a wider overhaul: the Main Building's B2 confectionery and bakery floor already reopened on August 28.
