Can you believe it? 7-Eleven has set foot on Malaysian grounds for 40 years! Over the four decades, 7-Eleven has evolved from a convenience store chain to an integral part of our daily lives, catering to our every need, from grabbing munchies for a very late movie night, to those emergency 7E runs when our mom asked us to buy some ice. ?

And let’s not forget how 7E is always there to save us when we urgently need something at 10pm and every other store is closed! Shoutout to all 7E workers who are always working through the night and even on public holidays! ?

As this iconic chain celebrates its 40 years of success, let us walk you through its journey alongside generations of Malaysians.

 

Tracing the legacy: 7-Eleven’s arrival in Malaysia

Malaysia’s first 7-Eleven store opened its doors in 1984. Throughout the years, 7-Eleven has led the way as Malaysia’s pioneer and largest 24-hour convenience store operator. Breaking new ground, it was the first to offer existing profit-making stores as franchise opportunities, making it easier for local entrepreneurs to jump in. Talk about an amazing #SapotLokal initiative! ❤️‍

Now, with over 2,500 stores spread across petrol stations, LRT stops, shopping malls, and even hospitals, 7-Eleven is everywhere we need it to be, bringing convenience right to our doorsteps! Whether we’re in our neighbourhoods, at school, or at work, it feels like 7-Eleven is always just around the corner, ready to serve us wherever we go!
