Japan's fast-food chain Sukiya will shut nearly all of its roughly 2,000 stores nationwide for four days from Monday following recent incidents of customers finding a rodent in a bowl of miso soup and a bug in another meal, it said on its website on Saturday.
Sukiya, the country's biggest beef bowl chain owned by dining giant Zensho Holdings (7550.T), opens new tab, last weekend apologised that miso soup served at one of its locations in western Japan in January had contained a rat. Zensho shares fell as much as 7% on the following Monday.
