YouMeSushi Accelerates UK Growth with Three New Store Openings, and 14 More Planned for 2026

YouMeSushi has continued its nationwide expansion with the opening of three new stores in December 2025 at Victoria, Watford and Chatham. Building on this momentum, the popular sushi brand is planning to launch a further 14 sites in 2026, with four openings scheduled for Q1.
Renowned for its freshly handmade sushi and flavourful hot Asian dishes, YouMeSushi’s recent launches and sustained customer demand have driven the brand to invite applications from new franchisees across the UK.
Founded 18 years ago and franchising since 2021, YouMeSushi was the original high-street sushi concept in the UK and now operates 29 locations nationwide.
Tim Circus, Franchise Development Director, said: “Our experienced team has spent years refining a strong, scalable franchise model. While the market has grown, the quality and freshness of our food remain unmatched, driving exceptional customer loyalty.”
All three recent openings were delivered by existing franchise partners, reflecting confidence in the brand and appetite for multi-site growth. To meet rising demand, YouMeSushi is now also welcoming new franchise applicants.
Muhammad Ali, franchisee of YouMeSushi Reading and Chatham, added: “Chatham is my second site. Great food sits at the heart of the brand, and the franchise support, from location selection to fit-out and recruitment, has been outstanding.”
