TOKYO -- H&M opened a new shop in Tokyo's upscale Ginza district Thursday, the first in Japan to feature an interior section and a cafe as the Swedish clothing company aims for a piece of the recovering economy boosted by the return of international tourism.

It's somewhat of a homecoming for H&M Japan, which first opened its first store in Ginza in 2008, before closing permanently in 2018.
