The general manager of a popular sushi restaurant that was
gutted by fire Wednesday said the extensive damage means it could be at least
six months before the restaurant reopens.
Fire caused at least $300,000 damage to the Sen Zushi
Japanese restaurant. The kitchen is unusable but the building is structurally
sound, says the restaurant's general manager. Photograph By ADRIAN
LAM, Times Colonist.
The building is still structurally sound, she said.
Fire broke out in the kitchen of the restaurant, located at
940 Fort St., about 5 a.m. Wednesday. Firefighters had trouble reaching the
kitchen and had to smash through another door.
The fire
appears to have been sparked by a rice cooker left on overnight. The blaze
caused at least $300,000 in damage but the building was covered by insurance.
As to how
long it will take to repair the damages, “some people say six months at least,
some people say a year,” Kokubun said.
“We’re
just doing our best to reopen it as soon possible.”
The
restaurant was decorated with expensive Japanese art, but Kokubun said much of
it may be salvageable.
Kokubun
said the approximately 20 staff will meet today to talk about the next steps.
She said the business will understand if employees look for other jobs but that
they would be welcomed back when the restaurant reopens.
The
restaurant has been open since 1971. Current owner Tsutomu Kondo bought the
restaurant in 2004. Sen Zushi is under the direction of chef Kozo Kawada, who
in 2009 prepared an eight-course dinner for the entourage of Japanese Emperor
Akihito during his visit to Victoria.
Kokubun
said she’s overwhelmed by the messages of support from loyal customers and
other Fort Street businesses.
“So many
of them [are] saying they’re glad that no one is hurt and they are wishing that
we can reopen soon,” she said. “And some business owners on Fort Street, they
are willing to help us in any way.”

LESSONS LEARNED
a)
The
flower shop should consider opening another outlets in order to recover loss.
If there is loss happens at the main shop, there is still another outlets that
can gain profits and cover the loss that occurs at the main shop. So by this
way, loss can be reduced. In this case, Kamelia only opened one outlet of her
flower shop, so it is a total loss.
b)
The
business owner should consider the geographic factor of their shop. They should
choose a strategic and appropriate location to open their business. In this
case, Kamelia should avoid location that have a high possibility for storm to
happen.

- Kamelia’s Flower Shop has to close their shop for about a month for the recovery of their shop. For a month they will not get any profit income and experience some losses because they could not serve their customers’ needs. Also they have to wait for a new cooler to store the flowers.
