    TOKYO, Sept 6 (Reuters) - Some business units of Japanese
food service firm Shidax Corp  4837.T  said they were
"disappointed" by the company's decision to oppose a tender
offer by Oisix ra daichi Inc  3182.T .
    The Shidax board's opposition to the tender offer by Oisix
is "not the unanimous opinion of the Shidax group," a
representative of the units said in a letter sent to Oisix and
seen by Reuters. 
    The letter was dated Tuesday. 
    Later on Tuesday, Unison Capital said it would agree to a
tender offer by Oisix if certain conditions were met, and the
Nikkei newspaper reported that Colowide Co Ltd, a company mainly
engaged in the restaurant business, proposed to take over
Shidax's school lunch business.
    No further details were immediately available.
