The company intends to attract the increasing Muslim visitors in Japan. According to the Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO), the number of Muslim visitors to Japan has been rising significantly in recent years. The growth is especially apparent with Malaysian visitors as well as Indonesian visitors, which grew 30% from 2016 to 2017. In a survey conducted before arriving in Japan, a majority of Muslim visitors expressed a keen interest in trying Japanese foods in Japan. Yet Japanese restaurants that cater to halal populations are still extremely limited. <!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Halal Japanese Restaurant Origami<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cWe are thrilled to meet the needs of Muslim tourists,\u201d said Akira Segawa, President &amp; CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/fujita-kanko.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fujita Kanko<\/a>. \u201cWe are excited that Japanese food has gained global popularity, and as a leading hospitality company, we want to make sure that all international visitors fully enjoy Japan and savor authentic Japanese foods.\u201d Fujita Kanko intends to expand their halal food expertise and eventually apply it to their dining and catering business at their hotels around Japan.
