Explosive Growth in the Global Rotating Sushi Market – Now Is the Time to Open Stores Overseas
In 2026, the global rotating sushi industry is witnessing unprecedented growth opportunities. Market data shows global rotating sushi sales reached US$3.805 billion in 2025 and are projected to grow to US$5.224 billion by 2032. The global rotating sushi conveyor belt system market is expected to reach US$420 million by 2031.
This growth wave is spreading across the world. In Thailand, the rotating sushi market has surged from under THB 1 billion (or even less than THB 500 million) six years ago to approximately THB 8 billion today, with annual growth close to 100% over the past four to five years. Traditional sushi restaurants are declining, and the rotating sushi model is taking their place. In the United States, Kura Sushi plans to expand at 20% annually, with U.S. locations expected to surpass 100 this year and a long‑term target of about 300 stores; Japanese brands like Choushimaru are also actively expanding in the U.S. market. In Europe, Germany is the largest sushi restaurant market, accounting for approximately 35% of the share, with France and the UK each representing over 25%. The European Japanese restaurant market was valued at US$3.77 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach US$4.83 billion by 2032.
The market opportunity is clear, but overseas entrepreneurs face a core challenge: how to source commercial rotating sushi equipment that complies with local regulations, adapts to local power grids, is reliable in quality, and can be deployed quickly?
Export‑Standard Commercial Equipment – Tailor‑Made for Overseas Store Openings
To address the specific needs of overseas markets, HaiSheng has launched its Export‑Standard Commercial Rotating Sushi Equipment series. This product line strictly adheres to international export standards, comprehensively resolving equipment challenges for overseas store openings – from voltage adaptation and safety certifications to installation specifications.
Global Voltage Compatibility – Overseas countries have different power grid standards: the U.S. and Canada use 110V/60Hz, while Europe and Australia use 220‑240V. HaiSheng equipment supports a wide voltage range of 110V‑240V, compatible with major global grid standards, eliminating the need for additional transformers for direct local connection.
Three Major International Certifications – Hassle‑Free Customs Clearance – HaiSheng’s Rotating Sushi Equipment holds three major international accreditations: EU CE certification, U.S. NSF food‑safety certification, and UL safety certification. CE certification ensures compliance with EU safety standards for smooth market entry; NSF certification verifies that materials and design meet U.S. food‑contact equipment hygiene requirements; UL certification guarantees electrical safety and is a threshold requirement for the U.S. market. With these three certifications, equipment can enter major global markets without barriers.
Factory Direct – Best Price‑Performance Ratio – As an original equipment manufacturer, HaiSheng operates a 10,000 m² modern factory with a technical engineering team of over 100, covering everything from steel cutting to complete system debugging in‑house. The factory‑direct model eliminates intermediary costs, allowing overseas customers to obtain high‑quality equipment at the most competitive prices.
Modular Design for Rapid Installation – Equipment features a modular design, allowing tracks, supports, and drive systems to be installed and replaced independently. Detailed installation drawings and remote guidance services are provided – overseas customers can complete assembly and commissioning without a specialized technical team, significantly shortening the pre‑opening preparation cycle.
Core Product Advantages: Stable, Silent, Durable, Intelligent
Dual‑Layer Stable Frame Structure – HaiSheng adopts refined Japanese manufacturing techniques. The main frame is forged from thickened food‑grade 304 stainless steel, with a single‑point load capacity of 20kg. A 30‑meter conveyor line can maintain a flatness tolerance within ±1.5mm, ensuring plates run as smoothly as a mirror surface.
Acrylic Silent Chain – Made of high‑purity food‑grade acrylic silent material, the chain runs extremely smoothly with strong wear resistance. At full load, operating noise is controlled to below 44 decibels – approximately 30% quieter than traditional systems, making it perfectly suitable for noise‑sensitive venues such as upscale shopping malls and hotels.
Adjustable Tension Device – Traditional chains tend to loosen and jam after long‑term use. HaiSheng’s innovative adjustable tension device allows operators to adjust chain tension in real time based on wear conditions, extending equipment service life by 25% and reducing annual maintenance costs by nearly 30%.
Smart Variable‑Track Delivery System – Smart delivery cars can achieve precise positioning, automatic U‑turns, obstacle avoidance, and intelligent error correction. Delivery efficiency is improved by over 40% compared to fixed‑track systems. Delivery car designs can be customised with IP images such as trains or spaceships, offering overseas customers a unique interactive dining experience.
Automatic Plate Return System – Customers insert empty plates into return slots after finishing their meal; the system automatically conveys them to the kitchen, saving 1‑2 labour positions per store. This configuration has become a core component for reducing costs and improving efficiency in Europe and the United States.
Global Service Network – After‑Sales Peace of Mind
HaiSheng products are exported to more than 20 countries and regions, including the United States, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, France, the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, and Portugal. The company maintains long‑term strategic partnerships with leading chain brands such as Xin Yi Fan, Wansui, Sushi‑sho, Wa Ting, He Zhi Xian, and Da Li Xi.
