Operating over 30 locations across Vietnam, Cambodia, and India, Japan and with the recent addition of our Indonesia store, we are a global pizza restaurant chain dedicated to bringing people together through exceptional dining experiences.

Since our founding, we have prioritized sustainability and community engagement. Our in-house crafted cheese and transparent sourcing of ingredients reflect our commitment to quality and environmental responsibility. We also offer educational and entertaining experiences, such as workshops for children using vegetables grown in our aquaponics systems. In Cambodia, we’ve tackled waste management challenges by launching zero-waste stores.

■Mission
“Delivering Wow, Sharing Happiness”
Our Tokyo branch embodies the concept of “Oneness ~Earth to People~”.  We believe that we are all part of the Earth, receiving its blessings and living in the present moment.

This belief is at the heart of what we do—creating experiences that inspire happiness and connection, aligning with our vision of “Make the World Smile for Peace.”
