New 7‑Eleven Franchisee Franchise Process

Let’s take a look at the steps to franchise with 7‑Eleven. With fast startup times and ongoing support, you’ll be celebrating success sooner than you think.

If you’re a growth-minded entrepreneur, we want to talk to you! And while it’s not required, it’s always a plus if you have a history in franchising or the following experience:

Multi-unit franchising

5-10 years of multi-unit management experience, preferably in the convenience, retail, or foodservice industries

Service in a branch of the U.S. military (not mandatory)

Step 1 Review Your Qualifications

To franchise with 7‑Eleven, you must:

  • Have U.S. citizenship (or permanent residency) and be at least 21 years old
  • Pass a comprehensive background check
  • Not have any other business interests that, in the opinion of 7‑Eleven, might jeopardize your opportunity to successfully implement the 7‑Eleven business concept
