This summer's heat has been intense, with the Tokai region recording the nation's first severe heat day in July. Ahead of the Obon holiday period, which brings up to nine consecutive days off for some, JR Nagoya Takashimaya is stocking a wide lineup of sweets to enjoy chilled and Nagoya-style souvenirs suited to the hot season. Bento boxes that sold well during Golden Week will also see their prepared quantities increased by more than 20 percent over the previous year to meet expected demand.
