Four Group Stores Within Walking Distance, and a Cluster of Standalone Stores in Kita-ku

Osaka has 71 listed stores, second only to Tokyo’s 106. Five of them sit in Kita-ku, Osaka-shi, where Umeda is located, and all five fall within a 1.3 km radius.

Stores in the same ward (as listed) Straight-line distance from Umeda
Matsunoya Osaka Ekimae Dai-3 Building approx. 570 m
Matsunoya Dojima approx. 930 m
Matsunoya Tenjimbashi 6-chome (co-located with Matsuya) approx. 1.3 km
Matsunoya Minamimorimachi (co-located with Mycurry Shokudo) approx. 1.3 km

Umeda is a standalone store with neither Matsuya nor Mycurry Shokudo attached, and together with Osaka Ekimae Dai-3 Building and Dojima, three of Kita-ku’s five stores are standalone. Across Osaka as a whole, 22 of the 71 stores are standalone, 38 are co-located with Matsuya, and 11 with Mycurry Shokudo. Of 681 stores nationwide, 122 are standalone, so the format without a co-located brand accounts for under 20 percent of the total. That makes Kita-ku a relatively dense pocket of standalone stores.
