TOKYO -- A massive shortfall in the aggressive Japanese expansion plans of Oyo, the SoftBank Group-backed Indian hotel group, has snowballed into a nasty labor dispute, the Nikkei Asian Review has learned.
Oyo Hotels & Homes, which seeks to become the largest hotel chain in the world, entered Japan in April. It laid out ambitious plans to become the country's largest hotel operator with a target of signing up 75,000 rooms under its brand by March 2020, according to sources.
