In December 2012, Kamei Corporation [ja], a Japanese trading company, acquired Mitsuwa's stock.

[5][6] Mitsuwa entered the Dallas/Fort Worth area with a store in Plano, an upper-middle-class northern suburb of Dallas.

There are also imported toiletries and makeup, as well as kitchen items including rice cookers, knives, cookware, chopsticks, food storage containers, and Japanese-style dishware.

Mitsuwa Chicago hosts a Kinokuniya, a Japanese book shop that sells manga, anime figurines, video game artbooks, Gunpla, stationery, novels, and other imported Japanese media and merchandise.

It has a food court, a bookstore owned by Kinokuniya, a gift shop selling Bape clothing and golf clubs, a video store that carries DVDs and Laserdiscs of movies and a store selling Japanese ceramics and denki-gama, making Mitsuwa more of a mini-mall than a traditional supermarket.

The supermarket section sells fresh produce and certified Angus beef, as well as Japanese drinks and snacks such as Yakult, Calpis, Ramune, Ikechi Shrimp Chips, Pocari Sweat, Pocky, Pretz, and Japanese liquor such as Sake and Shōchū.

The Books Kinokuniya bookstore section sells Japanese music CDs, novels, job applications, children's books, manga, and imported magazines (including dozens of Japanese fashion magazines) such as Weekly Shonen Jump and Disney Fan.

The bus transported Mitsuwa customers for a nominal fee and it did not make any stops along its route.
