Grand Opening of New Punta Gorda 7-Eleven

PUNTA GORDA, Fla. - Dec. 10, 2019 - PRLog -- 7-Eleven, Inc. invites local residents to sip, snack and see what the new 7-Eleven^® store at 26920 Jones Loop Rd. has to offer. A grand-opening celebration is planned for Friday, December 20, the day the store officially opens to the public. The fun and festivities will begin at 11 a.m. with fresh food sampling, free coffee, Slurpees®, and Big Gulp® drinks, and $0.50 Big Bite® hot dogs and pizza slices. Radio station B103.9 will be on site from 4 – 6 p.m.

Neighborhood 7-Eleven stores are typically franchised by local entrepreneurs, who are members of the community in which they operate their stores. The December 20 open house gives Harshil Patel an opportunity to meet and greet his new neighbors and customers.

Visitors will be invited to sign up for 7Rewards®, the 7-Eleven loyalty platform where customers can earn and redeem points on various in-store products upon checkout. For every six 7-Eleven beverages purchased – hot or cold, from small to large – served in a 7-Eleven cup, 7Rewards members earn a seventh free cup. To participate, customers must download and register in the 7-Eleven mobile app, available in the iTunes App Store or Google Play.

The store is home to 7-Eleven's new beverage experience which allows customers to customize their daily morning coffee, or mid-afternoon fix, just the way they want it at a fraction of coffee house prices. No matter what's in the cup, it's priced by size, so customers can select 7-Eleven drip coffee, or they can choose from espresso-based options including lattes, cappuccinos, americanos (with extra shots of espresso) as well as iced options including iced coffee, cold brew and nitro cold brew topped off with a variety of milk, creamers, sweeteners and toppings.

When franchising with 7‑Eleven, business men and women become part of a brand that's recognized around the world and consistently ranked as a top franchisor. With a business model built for success, entrepreneurs will not only be a part of a global brand but be equipped to run a successful business.
