FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands, parent company of Fatburger and 17 other restaurant concepts, announces a new partnership with Green Micro Factory to bring the burger brand back to Japan. Four locations will open in Okinawa over the next five years, with the first unit slated to open before the end of 2025.

“Okinawa presents a strategic opportunity for our return to Japan with its robust tourism and steady foot traffic generated by its military base presence,” said Taylor Wiederhorn, chief development officer of FAT Brands. “We see our debut in Okinawa as the first step in our broader growth across the country as we look to win locals over with our custom-built burgers, Fat and Skinny Fries, hand-scooped milkshakes, and more.”

Ever since the first Fatburger opened in Los Angeles over 70 years ago, the chain has been known for its grilled and cooked-to-order burgers.
