FamilyMart also attracted budget-minded consumers thanks to discount sales of food items such as eggs and milk. As a result, the company’s net profit jumped 36.7 % to a record 21.1 billion yen.
In its earnings report released Friday, Lawson Inc. said that the average daily sales per outlet hit a record high of 584,000 yen, as an efficient product ordering system using artificial intelligence contributed to higher sales. New bread products captured demand mainly from young customers.
