What Challenges Does the Foodservice Industry Face?

Japanese restaurants are world-class, with many Michelin-starred establishments, and 'food' is the top reason many international visitors come to Japan. In other words, Japanese cuisine is attracting global attention.

Despite this success, the industry still faces a high number of restaurant bankruptcies, and both business conditions and employee working environments remain tough.

The Japanese dining industry is dealing with two major challenges: money and people.

On the money side, low profit margins have led to poor credit ratings, making it difficult for many restaurants to manage cash flow.

On the people side, high turnover rates and rising wages are creating a constant shortage of workers.

 

How Does Dinii Solve These Problems?

Dinii addresses these issues through three approaches: increasing restaurant profitability, improving employee satisfaction, and enhancing access to financial services.

For its restaurant-focused SaaS, Dinii offers POS systems as a foundation, along with mobile ordering and CRM features. These unify restaurant sales data and enhance user experience (UX), helping restaurants become more profitable.

For its employee-focused SaaS, Dinii provides time and attendance management, as well as tools that visualize employee contributions, improving both UX and workplace retention.

In the Fintech space, Dinii has also entered the payment sector, offering low-rate services that enable payment processing in restaurants to improve their cash flow. Looking ahead, Dinii aims to boost restaurants' credit ratings by leveraging sales data, which come from its POS systems.

Dinii aims to become the dining infrastructure for everyone by providing its "All in One Restaurant Cloud."

Food is essential for connecting people, and Japan's foodservice industry — worth 25 trillion yen — is one of the nation's proudest cultures. Dinii wants to support this industry with technology and make it more rewarding and exciting for everyone involved.

Dinii places great emphasis on the customer perspective, as represented by its culture of "shift-in": product team members actually work shifts in restaurants — taking orders, serving dishes, watching customers' faces — to understand the realities of the field firsthand. This commitment to gathering first-hand information is the source of Dinii's competitive strength.

Dinii is also an "AI Native" company, where every team — not just engineers, but HR, CS, and Sales — embeds AI into their daily work to achieve outstanding productivity with a small, elite team.

The team is diverse, with about 125 members from megaventures, consulting firms, and the restaurant industry, working across four offices in Tokyo, Osaka, Sapporo, and Nagoya (as of June 2026). All board meetings are conducted in English, as Dinii aims to become an excellent company — born in Japan — that can compete globally.
