How to Franchise: 7 – Eleven Franchise Philippines

With the rise of the fast food giant, Jollibee Philippines, comes the giant to convenient shopping. A store that never closes and probably the most popular store / franchisewhich you can see in every corner of the metro.

Who would have guessed that a mere convenience store would be so successful that it can be found in almost every corner of a town, it all started during October 26, 1982 when Philippine Seven Corporation finally acquired the license agreement to use the 7-Eleven Convenience Store System from its original owner Southland Corporation of Dallas, Texas. Finally, being incorporated by Jose T. Pardo, Vicente T. Paterno and Francisco R. Sibal they were able to register with SEC on November 29, 1982 in just a month. The Company’s goal were simple, to provide good quality food to the local market for a 24 hours a day.

For further improvements and in order to apply the technology being used in Southland based branches, they formed a team which composed of Fracisco R. Sibal, Ramon De jesus, Jose Blanch, Wilfredo Villanueva, and Teodoro Wenceslao to train and learn how they manage there. Their training lasted for five weeks, but it really paid off because upon their arrival they started testing out what they learned from the five week training. Site selection, Design and Construction, Negotiation amongst Suppliers, Ordering of Equipments, Recruitment and training of Employees, these were the points that lead them to opening their first branch which was constructed at the corner of EDSA and Kamias Streets in Kamuning Quezon. They experienced major setbacks but were able to handle them and was able to open up another branch within the same year, this was placed at President Ave., BF Homes Paranaque.

From then on, the 7-Eleven Philippine Franchise grew and grew to the point that it can be seen almost anywhere you go, be it in long high-ways or even in major and minor towns. The 7-Eleven Franchise targets those who are in the middle class, mostly busy employees who are also on the go and needs to get something to eat fast and convenient, being able to do so they ensured success and the Franchise grew and grew.

The 7-Eleven Franchise never failed to innovate ways to provide the masses what they need, be it a cool drink to battle the scorching summer heat with a very refreshing SLURPEE, or scrumptious hotdog sandwiches which are always fresh and ready anytime of the day, and their most recent adaption of Mr.Donuts for you to enjoy.
