Saitama Prefecture local business developments

Overview

Saitama Prefecture is experiencing various local economic developments, including regional promotional efforts and shifts in the business landscape.

In late September 2026, the prefecture launched the ‘My Tea Activity Sayama Tea Stamp Rally & Recipe Contest 2026’ to promote Sayama tea. This initiative involves a digital stamp rally at more than 40 specialty stores and restaurants, alongside a contest for tea-based recipes. During this period, new food and beverage establishments such as ‘Sumibi Yakitori Yagachan’ and ‘Izakaya Watanuki’ opened, while several pachinko parlors closed in Kawagoe, Tsurugashima, Shiki, and Tokorozawa.

By mid-October 2026, the trend of new business openings continued with the launch of Nouka Kitchen Miyoshi and Mishima Furniture, alongside upcoming openings for the patisserie Términus and Li Xiaoxi Malatang.
