Sushi King Expands Workplace Dining with new outlet at Renesas Penang

PENANG, October 2026 – Sushi King has officially opened its latest workplace outlet at Renesas Penang, marking its fourth workplace location in Penang and reinforcing its commitment to making affordable Japanese cuisine more accessible to Malaysians.

Operated under a convenient grab-and-go concept, the outlet offers Renesas employees a variety of Japanese-inspired food options at affordable prices, with more than 20 menu items available at RM5 and below. The initiative aims to enhance employees’ workplace experience by providing convenient access to quality meals during working hours.

According to Datuk Dr Yuma Konishi, President and Group CEO of Texchem Group, the expansion reflects Sushi King’s strategy to grow beyond traditional restaurant formats and bring Japanese food closer to customers through innovative outlet concepts.

The workplace outlet model complements Sushi King’s existing presence in malls and shoplots, while supporting the brand’s expansion into workplaces and educational institutions through smaller-format kiosks and satellite outlets. Food for the Renesas outlet is prepared at Sushi King’s Queensbay Mall branch before being delivered fresh to the workplace.

The collaboration also aligns with Renesas’ commitment to employee wellbeing by creating a more enjoyable and convenient workplace environment. Following the success of similar workplace outlets at Intel, Flex and Dexcom, future expansion opportunities may also be explored at Renesas facilities in Kedah and Selangor.

With more than 130 outlets nationwide, Sushi King continues to strengthen its position as the world’s largest halal sushi restaurant chain while exploring new ways to serve customers wherever they work, learn and gather.

A Place for Everyone

Sushi King is more than a place to eat — it’s where memories are made. From family dinners and weekend catch-ups to solo visits and date nights, our warm atmosphere, kid-friendly offerings, and thoughtful service ensure everyone feels welcome.

It’s not just about the food. It’s about the smiles, the laughs, and the good times shared around the table. And we’re honoured to keep that tradition rolling

Crafted by Japanese Hands

Our culinary story is led by Chef Takeshi Torita — a master of traditional Japanese cuisine, now guiding Sushi King’s menu with both heritage and heart. Under his leadership, we bring together the artistry of Japanese technique with the flavours and preferences of Malaysian diners. The result? Dishes that feel familiar, yet rooted in something deeper.

Every roll, every bowl, every bite is a reflection of Chef Torita’s dedication to quality, balance, and authenticity.

A Healthier Pick

Craving something lighter? We’ve got you covered. Our Healthier Pick menu is carefully curated for the wellness-conscious — offering balanced portions, lower-calorie meals, and satisfying options that let you enjoy Japanese food guilt-free. Because eating well shouldn’t mean compromising on flavour.

Tasteful Variety

We’re proud of our variety — because we know every customer walks in craving something different. With over 100 menu items spanning sushi, hot dishes, donburi, noodles, bento, and seasonal specials, there’s always something new to discover or an old favourite to come back for.

Whether you’re feeling adventurous or just want that one dish you always order, Sushi King keeps things exciting and satisfying.

Every Bite, A Piece of Mind

In 2006, Sushi King proudly became Malaysia’s first halal-certified Japanese restaurant chain. But going halal wasn’t just a label — it was a commitment that reshaped everything we did. Over 150 ingredients were reviewed and reformulated, with non-halal items like mirin removed. Alcohol content was reduced across the board, and we began sourcing exclusively from 100% halal-certified suppliers, both locally and internationally.

Our kitchens and preparation processes were redesigned. Staff received halal and food safety training, regular hygiene programs were enforced, and typhoid vaccinations became standard. Even our Japanese head chef worked closely with our team to reimagine the menu — preserving authenticity while ensuring full halal compliance.

Today, we carry the title of the world’s largest halal Japanese restaurant chain not just with pride, but with responsibility. Because when you dine with us, you know every detail has been thoughtfully considered — from farm to chopsticks.

Sushi in Motion

We didn’t just bring sushi to Malaysia — we made it move. Literally. Our kaiten belt was the first of its kind in the country, and it changed how people dined. Suddenly, sushi wasn’t something you ordered and waited for — it came to you. With vibrant plates gliding past, choosing your favourite became fun, spontaneous, and exciting.

It removed the pressure of ordering, made Japanese food feel more accessible, and created a dynamic, interactive dining experience that Malaysians quickly fell in love with. Whether you’re flying solo, dining with friends, or treating the whole family, the kaiten belt is what makes every visit to Sushi King an experience.
