Sales are presumed to increase all the more this month. At present, the monthly sales increase is about 12.5%.The people in the business world is in unison saying that the effect of BYJ's appointment of being the endorser of TFS is indeed big.

The response is hot even in Japan. At present there are shortage of BYJ's posters and pictures at 10 TFS stores in Japan due to so many requests, It is also known that there are Japanese media who are requesting for TFS selling in Japan during an interview with BYJ.

Because of the hot response from foreign countries, TFS is highly considering hiring BYJ also as an endorser for the TFS stores overseas. The person concerned from TFS shop said that they are carefully examining the contract for the overseas market next March.
