Though Gyu-Kaku is part of Reins International Inc., every restaurant is different in terms of region and selection availability (i.e. outlets in the United States serve locally sourced USDA beef).

Gyu-Kaku also manufactures and purveys its own brand of kimchi in Japanese supermarkets, and a line of dipping sauces and marinades.
