New Business Plan Support Service Launched to Aid Restaurant Financing Applications
In an exciting development for aspiring restaurant owners, Synchro Food, the organization running the comprehensive service platform "Restaurant.com," has unveiled a new service dedicated to helping businesses create efficient business plans for loan applications. Operating from Shibuya, Tokyo, Synchro Food is keen to know and address the challenges associated with securing capital, a crucial first hurdle in restaurant openings.
The restaurant industry frequently requires financing from both personal capital and institutions like the Japan Finance Corporation. The success of loan applications significantly impacts both the timeline for opening and the overall business strategy. It's evident that navigating this phase of securing funding sits at the forefront of the restaurant planning process, preceding critical decisions like property selection and interior design. Yet, producing the necessary paperwork and a comprehensive business plan can feel overwhelming, often viewed as a daunting intro into the business world for many.
This newly available service aims to take the stress out of this initial barrier by guiding clients through the complexities of crafting business plans tailored to their unique concepts. Through detailed discussions, Synchro Food assists in analyzing market dynamics and competitors, designing concepts, and formulating financial plans. Clients receive a business plan formatted according to the Japan Finance Corporation's standards, ensuring they are well-prepared to submit funding requests.
Supported Areas
Type of business: All Food and Beverage sectors
Financing purposes: Start-up costs, equipment investment, and operational funds
Stages of use: From planning to the final loan application
Fee Structure
Initial fee: ¥10,000 (before tax)
Success fee: 3.0% of the financing amount (before tax)
Note: If funding isn't realized, the success fee does not apply.
The service officially commenced in August 2025 and was followed by the introduction of the service page in December 2025. The pilot case proved successful, with a first-time entrepreneur secured the full amount of ¥9 million in start-up funding for their restaurant. This collaborative effort revealed key insights into the necessity of organized information and strategic planning during the opening phase, addressing previously cited challenges faced by entrepreneurs.
Feedback from a user—keen to open a new bar in Tokyo—reflected on their experience: "In the midst of uncertainty about the opening process, being able to concretely visualize local information, competition, and financial plans was tremendously helpful." Clearly, the market for pre-opening support in planning is ripe for exploration.
With this new service, Restaurant.com continues its mission of supporting the complete spectrum of restaurant establishment and operations. Additionally, there are plans for expanding their offerings to include support beyond start-up financing, such as organizing information about various funding options and collaborating with related support players. Synchro Food is committed to minimizing the decision-making load that entrepreneurs face, making the journey to opening a venue smoother and more efficient.
Synchro Food operates with a vision to extend diverse culinary experiences across Japan and the world. They support restaurant management and operations by providing comprehensive solutions that utilize technology to offer choices related to talent, products, information, and services swiftly and effectively. This, in turn, contributes to the growth of the restaurant industry and the happiness of those involved.
