井上 学Manabu Inoue
-
Mr. Inoue values the relationships and bonds with people in his life.
Learning the importance of connection with others through baseball, he entered the food and beverage industry at 18. It was 19 years ago that he first met the owner of San Bettei. Due to the company's rapid growth, which started as a Kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers) restaurant, he was separated from the owner and left the company. He studied service in Italian and French restaurants, then worked in construction and as an executive at a ramen restaurant. However, he could not forget the owner whom he respected and connected with him via SNS. When San Bettei from Onna-son, Okinawa, was opening in Kitashinchi, he joined the restaurant as a manager, realizing his wish to work with the owner.
