The 7-Eleven brand is known and loved around the world, and our iconic products are a big part of the American culture. And although we’ve grown significantly over the years, our focus stays fixed on making life easier for customers. This simple idea is the reason we’re the marketplace leader. It’s also why our customers, employees, Franchisees and community leaders are proud to be part of the 7-Eleven story.
 
From our humble beginning as the world’s first convenience store, 7-Eleven continues its pursuit of innovative ways to cater to a new, digital-savvy generation of shoppers. As technology redefines how customers shop, we make sure to remain two steps ahead. At 7-Eleven, we are customer-obsessed. We always poll customers to ensure we are bringing them solutions that they can’t even imagine. From offering convenient and user-friendly technology that earns our customers free products to having an ice-cold SLURPEE® drink delivered straight to their door, we are the leader in convenience and we constantly put our customers at the center of design and development

Community Announcement
 
 
Richmond City Council voted unanimously Tuesday, May 1st to prohibit plastic straws and plastic stirrers from being used, provided, distributed, or sold by local businesses or at city government-sponsored events, citing their negative environmental impact.
 
The amendment to the Richmond Food Wares Ordinance, proposed by Mayor Tom Butt’s office, also adds utensils and lids to the list of disposable food wares which must be made with recyclable or compostable materials. One-time use plastic items already prohibited in the ordinance are containers, bowls, plates, trays, cartons, cups and others including service ware for takeout foods.
 
The banning of plastic straws and stirrers gained the support of the Richmond Chamber of Commerce, although President and CEO James Lee expressed concern over the timeline in which city businesses would need to comply with the new rule.
