A Fresh Start for Picard Azabu-Juban Store
The beloved French frozen food specialist, Picard, is set to relaunch its Azabu-Juban store on June 1, 2026, promising a delightful shopping experience. This renovation incorporates feedback from customers, aiming to enhance both accessibility and overall enjoyment for visitors.
Enhanced Shopping Experience
One of the key improvements includes a rethought store layout designed to facilitate easier navigation. With new entrances, customers will find it simpler to explore the aisles filled with popular and featured products. The redesign aims to transform the store into a welcoming space for shoppers to leisurely browse and discover their favorite frozen delicacies.
Introducing La Petite Réserve
A highlight of the renovation is the introduction of a new section called "La Petite Réserve" which translates to "The Little Reserve" in English. This area embodies the essence of French culinary culture, showcasing a variety of items that customers can gradually stock up on, enhancing their dining experiences at home. By combining Picard's offerings with European treats such as pastries, cookies, condiments, and wines, La Petite Réserve will offer shoppers an opportunity to explore new culinary delights. This concept aims to make everyday meals more enjoyable and inspires customers to try new combinations at their tables.
Launch of Premium Soft Serve CREMIA
Additionally, the store will debut a premium soft serve ice cream, "CREMIA," made from high-quality Hokkaido cream. Known for its rich and smooth flavor profile, this treat will also feature a unique lang de chat cone, providing a light texture for an enhanced dessert experience. Priced at ¥550 (including tax), CREMIA offers a luxurious addition to the store's lineup of offerings.
Grand Reopening Campaign
In celebration of the reopening, Picard Azabu-Juban will run a limited-time promotional campaign from June 1 to June 7, 2026. The first 200 customers who purchase items worth ¥5,000 or more (inclusive of tax) will receive an exclusive Picard original butter knife as a gift. Supplies are limited, so early arrival is encouraged to secure this special offer.
