The company started in Texas in 1927 and started to the use the 7-Eleven name in 1946. The majority of the stores are operated in Japan after a Japanese company owned the majority interest of the company since 1991.
Initially these stores used to be open from 7 AM to 11 PM, hence the name. Now most of the stores in this chain are open at all times. Their most well-known products include Slurpees (a partially frozen slurry in a number of flavours) and the Big Gulp (super size soda pop in 32, 44, and 64 fluid ounce sizes).
