The Trump Organization invests several million dollars in a Japanese restaurant chain
A percentage of the Kura Sushi USA restaurant chain was recently purchased by the Trump Organization
According to a document published by the United States Office of Government Ethics, the Trump Organization has diversified part of its transactions by investing large amounts of money in transnational companies linked to the sale of fast food and even in a famous chain of Japanese food restaurants.
Although it has been known for years that the current president of the nation does not like to consume fish, the people dedicated to managing his investment portfolios considered it appropriate to allocate several million dollars to the acquisition of a percentage of the Kura Sushi USA chain.
This business was founded in 2008, in Irvine, California, and thanks to its innovation of offering diners who visit its branches a wide variety of dishes mounted on a rotating conveyor belt that pass by each table, it managed to trigger its growth.
Nationally, Kura Sushi USA has 88 restaurants in 22 states and the District of Columbia, but in total it has more than 650 located in various parts of the world.
For this reason, among the investments that the Trump Organization made at the beginning of the year is a percentage acquired from the aforementioned restaurants.
Although the amount of said investment is not known, some financial specialists agree that it would be between one and $5,000,000 dollars.
Aside from this transaction, it is known that the Trump Organization operators also purchased shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill, the largest and most popular Tex-Mex-style fast food chain in the United States.
As part of the same strategy to diversify through new investments, another thousands of dollars were allocated to the purchase of securities linked to Domino's Pizza and Starbucks.
In contrast, the team of specialists that worked for Donald Trump, while he was dedicated to governing the country, got rid of a percentage of their stakes in the technology companies Amazon, Microsoft and Meta.
In this way, after about a year and a half of returning to the White House, the New York magnate substantially increased his fortune, this after the trouble he suffered during the trials that implied a high risk of ending up in prison.
