Matsuno said the company is looking at properties but is not disclosing any details yet. She is interested in the Seattle, Portland, and San Francisco Bay areas. Matsuno said she wants to expand in order to grow revenue and because she believes Uwajimaya has a good product.
The company's revenues were $85 million last year and she expects revenues between $89 million and $90 million this year. Uwajimaya is profitable, Matsuno said."
