A 7-Eleven franchise provides an opportunity for individuals, couples or small companies to open their own ready-to-operate convenience stores with the world’s largest operator and franchisor of convenience stores. Franchisees operate approximately 80 percent of 7-Eleven’s U.S. stores.

To run their 7-Eleven stores successfully, franchisees are well equipped with all the necessary tools to succeed including popular products like Slurpee® drinks, coffee, Big Bite® hotdog, Doritos Loaded® and fresh foods, its sophisticated retailing information system and daily delivery of time-sensitive products.

The convenience retailer provides the land, building, utilities, equipment and a turnkey operation with payroll administration, accounting services, advertising and promotions. After five-to-eight weeks of hands-on training in a local store, franchisees receive ongoing support from a field consultant who provides ongoing one-on-one support and business counsel.

Individuals who are interested in learning more about 7-Eleven’s franchise system, business model and the benefits of franchising can attend the corporation’s free franchise seminar in Charlotte on Aug. 27. Because space is limited, registration is necessary. For more information and to register for the upcoming seminar, please visit www.franchise.7-Eleven.com.
