Our Origins

RE&S was founded in 1988 by Osaka native Hiroshi Tatara, bringing a slice of Japanese lifestyle to Singapore with our Takahashi and Fiesta restaurants. As RE&S grew, we developed new brands and concepts like Kuriya, Shimbashi Soba, Kuishin Bo and Ichiban Boshi. Today, we’re a household name all over Singapore. Most recently, we’ve expanded our Japanese food production and distribution capabilities, adding dozens of food products on top of our current offerings. Our story, our future, is just beginning.
