7-Eleven
Background
The first business I interviewed was 7-Eleven. 7-Eleven is actually a franchise but each individual store is either owned or licensed by individual owners, therefore it still can be classified as a small business. ... 7-Eleven pioneered the convenience store concept way back in 1927 at the Southland Ice Company in Dallas, Texas. ... In 1946, Totem became 7-Eleven to reflect the stores new, extended hours - 7 a. ... The companys corporate name was changed from The Southland Corporation to 7-Eleven, Inc. ... The 7-Eleven I interview is located a 1247 Highstreet Rd. ... At the time of his purchase Naz spoke to his cousin, which owned the Springvale 7-Eleven. Naz’s cousin told him that if he changed the Mobil into a 7-Eleven it would be more of a lucrative business opportunity. Naz took his cousin advice and converted the Mobil petrol station to a 7-Evelen. ... Naz had several years of experience running businesses including his companies Naz construction and Zarif Trading Pty Ltd, so he took to running 7-Evelen as second nature. 7-Eleven itself is a petrol station with a convenience store. ... The staff consists of 7 workers (Naz, Alice, Nibbels, Hattem, Hady, Sam and Dave) all working different shifts as the store is open 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
Demand & Supply
The customers who enter and purchase products from 7-Eleven are from all different ethnic groups, ages and genders. ... Each and every customer has different tastes and likes therefore, 7-Eleven focuses on meeting the needs of busy shoppers by providing a broad selection of fresh, high-quality products and services at everyday fair prices, along with speedy transactions and a clean, safe, friendly shopping environment.
