Innovating for a Sustainable Future

7-Eleven, Inc. continues to make progress toward reducing our environmental impact and to move ahead by strategically investing in environmental initiatives that increase energy efficiency and alternative energy (wind and solar) while reducing waste and resource consumption.

Reducing Environmental Impact

In 2019, Seven & i Holdings Co., Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as "our Group") launched Green Challenge 2050 — a four-pronged strategy to reduce its environmental footprint across the entire store network and supply chain.

In support of this, 7-Eleven, Inc. seeks to make it easier for customers, Franchise Owners, business partners and employees to do good for the planet, including achieving a sustainable future through our targeted “Planet” or environmental priorities. These targets include increasing access to alternative fuels, an overall reduction in CO2e emissions, continued investment in renewable energy and the pursuit of more sustainable packaging.

【Environmental Goal】

Reduce CO2 emissions from stores by 50% by 2030 (FY2013 baseline)

7 AFFORDABLE AND CLEAN ENERGY
13 CLIMATE ACTION

Reducing CO2e Emissions

In support of our parent company’s Green Challenge 2050, 7-Eleven, Inc. is working toward reducing carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e)* emissions from stores by 50 percent by 2030, compared with FY2013 levels. In FY2024, through its emission reduction measures, 7-Eleven, Inc. reduced its CO2e emissions from stores in the U.S. and Canada by 458,125 MTCO2e or 33.3% from FY2013 to FY2024. This is equivalent to greenhouse gas emissions from approximately 106,860 passenger vehicles for one year.

Along with efforts to continuously improve operational energy efficiency practices in stores, 7-Eleven, Inc. has been able to achieve these results by investing in renewable energy and more than 2,000 energy efficiency projects in some 7-Eleven® stores.

* Our Group uses “CO2” for its target while SEI uses “CO2 e” to define its target.

Innovating to Make Our Stores More Energy Efficient

There’s a lot of “behind-the-scenes” technology in many of our stores* that’s helping to lower energy consumption and preserve precious resources while elevating the customer experience. For example:

LED Lighting

7-Eleven, Inc.'s LED lighting program is part of the company’s energy-efficient store design standard and is a contributor to the company’s CO2 reduction goal helping to reduce energy consumption in stores*.

* implemented in some 7-Eleven® store locations

Expanding Renewable Energy

Energy conservation projects are just one part of the bigger picture — we’re also expanding our renewable energy initiative. About 23 percent of all the electricity consumed by 7-Eleven, Inc. stores in both the U.S. and Canada during FY2024 came from renewable sources, including wind and solar.

・With more than 19,000 wind turbines in the state, Texas ranks first in the U.S. for both installed and under-construction wind capacity and is home to four of the six of the largest wind farms in the nation* . In 2017, 7-Eleven, Inc. signed an agreement with TXU Energy to purchase wind energy for all 7-Eleven, Inc. Texas stores in competitive energy markets. In FY2024,7-Eleven, Inc. purchased over 383,000 MWh renewable energy from TXU Energy, providing power to more than 990 stores. This program accounted for an estimated 51 percent of all FY2024 renewable energy consumed by 7-Eleven® stores.

・Since FY2020, 7-Eleven has subscribed to a program to procure renewable energy for its Florida stores by using large-scale solar power generation facilities. This program accounted for approximately 137,000 MWh, or 18 percent, of all FY2024 renewable energy consumed by 7-Eleven, Inc.

・As of FY2021, the company began operating under agreements for over 60,000 MWh of off-site wind energy for its Illinois stores, and community solar projects in Oregon that are expected to provide an additional 2,500 MWh of renewable energy once fully operational. In FY2024, the Illinois and Oregon agreements contributed approximately 84,000 MWh and 2,500 MWh of renewable energy, respectively.

・In FY2022, 7-Eleven, Inc. announced a 20-year clean energy commitment in Michigan through Detroit-based DTE Energy’s innovative MIGreenPower program. This agreement is an example of how 7-Eleven, Inc. is working with both the private and public sectors to reduce its carbon footprint.

・In FY2022, the company subscribed to a program for over 37,000 MWh annually for off-site wind and solar energy in Nevada. This program delivered an estimated 44,700 MWh of renewable energy in FY2024. Energy conservation projects are just one part of the bigger picture — we’re also expanding our renewable energy initiative. About 29 percent of all the electricity consumed by 7-Eleven, Inc. stores in both the U.S. and Canada during FY2023 came from renewable sources, including wind and solar.

Increasing Access to Alternative Fuels

Through 7Charge™, our electric vehicle fast charging network and app, 7-Eleven, Inc. is focused on giving electric vehicle drivers a seamless charging and payment experience across our network. Reliable and fast, we’re redefining convenience with 7Charge at stores along select highway corridors and in metropolitan areas.

As of the end of 2024, we had a total of 180 7Charge ports at 53 stores in eight U.S. states plus two Canadian provinces. 7-Eleven customers bought an estimated 3.3 million kWh through our network of electric vehicle fast charging stations, which equals approximately 12 million e-miles charged.

Sustainable Packaging

7-Eleven, Inc., continuously seeks ways to improve product packaging with sustainable attributes that not only minimize environmental impact throughout its lifecycle (from production and use to disposal), but also ensure that the products on the inside are safe and at the peak of quality. 7-Eleven, Inc.’s goal is to use packaging with sustainable attributes for 50 percent of proprietary products by 2030.

FY2024 Key Initiatives

Increasing Post-Consumer Recycled Content

Sandwich Packaging

Value Sandwich Wedge

Through 7-Eleven’s “Recycled Content Inclusion” program, in 2024 we increased the use of PCR content in the packaging for our value sandwich wedge from 20 to 25 percent since 2023. This 5 percent increase has resulted in approximately 19,700 pounds of additional virgin plastic avoided annually.

Altogether, between the 2023 and 2024 improvements, the new 25 percent PCR value sandwich packaging now helps us avoid an estimated 98,500 pounds of virgin plastic each year.*

Premium Sandwich Package

Building on the improvements of our value sandwich wedge, in 2024, we also redesigned our premium sandwich packaging, increasing the PCR content from zero percent to 25 percent. The new 25 percent premium sandwich package will roll out nationally in 2025 and will help us avoid approximately 124,000 pounds of virgin plastic each year.*

Combined, our new 25 percent PCR value and 25 percent PCR premium sandwich packages will help us avoid an estimated 222,000 pounds of virgin plastic annually.* By opting for PCR, we’re helping reduce waste, promoting environmental sustainability and aligning with growing consumer and regulatory demands for greener practices — proof that convenience, fresh food and a cleaner environment are compatible goals.

Reducing Plastic Use

Replenishing Our Customers and the Planet

Launched in 2019, the popular 7-Select™ Replenish® line of hydration beverages have quickly become a staple in the lives of our customers.

And with a new package design, customers can feel good knowing that sustainability and can go hand-in-hand. The redesigned bottles for 7-Select Replenish offer a host of benefits, including less plastic, both in the bottle itself and in the wrapping, resulting in an estimated annual plastic waste reduction of 104 metric tons. And by optimizing the packaging, 7-Eleven can now fit more cases per pallet, reducing the number of trucks required to keep stores supplied by nearly 25 percent annually.

The redesign is an innovative milestone in operating sustainably by reducing plastic usage and streamlining logistics, reflecting the company’s dedication to providing customers with delicious products that align with their values.

Reducing Food Waste

Too Good To Go

Saving Good Food From Going to Waste Launched in 2023 as a pilot program, 7-Eleven Canada joined social impact company Too Good To Go to prevent “avoidable food waste,” a category of foods that may be nearing their best-by dates.

When perfectly good food is tossed away, so is all the energy and water it takes to grow, harvest, transport and package it. In Canada, for example, approximately 35.5 million metric tons of food produced is lost or wasted every year; that waste also contributes approximately 25.7 million metric tons of CO2 e emissions to the atmosphere each year.*

That’s where Too Good To Go and 7-Eleven Canada can help. A selection of items nearing their best-before dates are packaged up in daily discount-priced “Surprise Bags” at one of more than 440 participating 7-Eleven® stores in Canada. Too Good To Go’s mobile app then sends notifications to customers who are happy to grab delicious, convenient food at a great value.

In addition to the program’s positive environmental impact, it also helps address the growing challenge of food insecurity. An estimated 8.7 million Canadians, including 2.1 million children, live in households struggling to afford food. The food items that are offered in our ‘Surprise Bags’ provide a budget-friendly option to both our sustainably minded customers, as well as those navigating food insecurity. In 2024, 7-Eleven Canada and Too Good To Go saved more than 167,000 meals.

Sustainability Innovation Summit

7-Eleven, Inc.’s Innovation Summit brought together cross-functional leadership from across the company to advance sustainability while also accelerating business growth in 2025 and beyond. THE GOAL Continue refining and adapting the road map that guides our Green Challenge 2050 journey to sustainable retail leadership around three pillars: PEOPLE -Building thriving communities, PLANET -Protecting the environment, and PRODUCTS -Promoting responsible consumption.

During the 2024 workshop, the team brainstormed specific ways to more thoroughly embed sustainability management practices into our operational business practices, thus reducing our environmental footprint across the entire store network and supply chain. Priorities from the workshop include growing the volume of renewable fuels that we sell throughout our network and increasing renewable fuel use in our company vehicles and third-party transport fleet — both of which play a critical role in reducing CO2e emissions. The team also identified additional opportunities to support our plastic reduction and food waste reduction initiatives, including expanding our Too Good To Go engagement into U.S. markets and enhancing sustainable initiatives in our procurement of goods.

7-Eleven Cares Foundation: Support for initiatives prioritizing health, safety, and equal opportunity

Through the 7-Eleven Cares Foundation, we support significant volunteer initiatives, charitable donations and community outreach programs that will help build thriving communities for years to come. Our goal: make a meaningful and measurable impact on the lives of the people and communities we serve through investments in health, safety and opportunity.

Celebrating 30+ Years of Healthier Kids

In 2024, through its support of Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) Hospitals, 7-Eleven, Inc. raised more than $17 million to support 112 local member children’s hospitals nationwide. Many of these hospitals serve as the most trusted healthcare institutions in their communities.

The funds will play a vital role in advancing pediatric healthcare, ensuring every child in need across local communities served by 7-Eleven can receive the best possible care. This achievement was made possible through the generosity of customers, Franchise Owners, business partners and employees across the 7-Eleven family of brands.

Funds were the result of a year-round in-store fundraising campaign at participating Speedway® stores, as well as two additional in-store fundraising campaigns at participating 7-Eleven® and Stripes® stores. In addition, nearly $3 million in funding came from the 33rd annual Miracle Tournament and Celebration Dinner held in held in Dayton, Ohio. Nearly 1,000 supporters rallied together to raise funds and celebrate the children who directly benefit from funds raised through Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

As an added bonus, 7-Eleven’s community-focused Cleat Crew™ campaign brought together top college football athletes to design custom cleats alongside luxury designer The Shoe Surgeon, Dominic Ciambrone. The one-of-a-kind cleats were then auctioned to fans, with proceeds benefiting local Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals connected to each athlete’s hometown. The innovative program raised more than $115,000 for CMN Hospitals.

Since 1991, 7-Eleven, Inc. has raised more than $200 million for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

National Volunteer Month

In honor of National Volunteer Month in April, nearly 420 Store Support Center (SSC) employees in Enon, Ohio, and Irving, Texas, contributed their time - 1,047 volunteer hours - and talent to help non-profit organizations through our annual 7Cares Day.

This collective day of service encouraged employees to choose a special volunteer opportunity at any one of 10 local non-profit organizations and experience the impact of the vital work these charities perform in our communities. The 7-Eleven Cares Foundation also donated $2,000 to each organization for an overall contribution of $20,000.

Supporting Disaster Relief

The Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides comfort to people affected by disasters. They also supply about 40 percent of the nation’s blood, teach life-saving skills, and support veterans, military members and their families. And they do it all by relying on volunteers and the generosity of the American public. For these reasons (and many more), 7-Eleven, Inc. is honored to support the American Red Cross.

The 7-Eleven Cares Foundation, for example, is a proud annual supporter of the American Red Cross Disaster Responder Program. Generous donations by the companyits employees and customers, $300,000+ contributed in 2024, also benefited those affected by Hurricane Helene, which landed in Florida and led to catastrophic rainfall-induced flooding in western North Carolina, East Tennessee and southwestern Virginia, as well as victims of Hurricane Milton in the southeastern U.S. and Hurricane Francine in Texas and Louisiana.

Signature Program: Operation Chill® - Fostering relationships that make communities stronger and safer

Building on our long-standing relationship with the law enforcement community, the 7-Eleven family of brands is committed to fostering relationships that make communities stronger and safer. The ongoing success of the Operation Chill® program is a prime example. Since 1995, the program helps law enforcement build positive connections by awarding free Slurpee® drink coupons to kids they observe performing good deeds or exhibiting positive behavior.

More than 555,250 Slurpee® drink coupons distributed in 2024 to 1,300+ participating law enforcement agencies. Twenty-four million coupons have been handed out since 1995

National Night Out (Sponsored by 7-Eleven Cares Foundation)

In 2024, the 7-Eleven Cares Foundation, supported by 7-Eleven, Inc., signed on as a proud supporter of National Night Out® (NNO), an annual community campaign that promotes positive police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie.

NNO communities often host block parties, festivals or cookouts, complete with safety demonstrations, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and more.

As part of this relationship, 7-Eleven®, Speedway® and Stripes® stores support local NNO events in select markets across the country on the first Tuesday in August and October. In just the first year of the relationship, stores supported nearly 100 events in 19 markets across the country and registered nearly 95 new law enforcement agencies for Operation Chill.

By bringing people together, these events help break down barriers, allow us to connect firsthand with our neighbors and continue building on our longstanding relationship with the law enforcement community.

7-Eleven Canada Slurpee® Name Your Price Day Supports Food Banks Canada

In September of 2024, 7-Eleven customers in Canada were encouraged to help support Food Banks Canada through the company’s Slurpee Name Your Price Day. The program works just like it says: customers name their price for a large Slurpee® drink and all the collected funds go to Food Banks Canada. Every dollar donated provides two meals for those facing food insecurity.

The Slurpee Name Your Price Day event is a unique way to make a direct impact in the communities we operate in, together with our partners at Food Banks of Canada. The initiative’s importance is underscored by the fact that visits to food banks across Canada continue to increase. In March 2024 alone, there were nearly 1.5 million visits made, with children comprising approximately one-third of those served. Customers delivered on the program’s pledge and raised nearly $58,000, equating to more than 115,000 meals for people impacted by food insecurity.

And those customers who might have missed Slurpee Name Your Price Day were able to donate on their next store visit by simply rounding up their purchase to the next dollar at any 7-Eleven Canada store.

Our Commitment to a Diversity and Inclusion (DE+I)

With more than 13,000 stores across U.S. and Canada, 7-Eleven is an integral part of the incredibly diverse neighborhoods we serve. To ensure an inclusive customer experience and workplace, we encourage Franchise Owners and 7-Eleven employees across the family of brands to bring their unique perspectives, talents and contributions to work every day.

Associate Business Resource Groups – The Power of Belonging

Ensuring that everyone feels welcome in our stores is a hallmark of the 7-Eleven family of brands. And that strong sense of belonging extends to our employees, too. We’re committed to creating an environment where everyone feels seen, valued, connected and empowered to contribute their best because we know it leads to deeper engagement, collaboration and innovation across the business.

7-Eleven’s Associate Business Resource Groups (ABRGs) are voluntary, employee led groups designed to help build a culture of belonging in alignment with the company’s mission, values and strategy. ABRGs offer opportunities to all corporate employees to develop valuable skills that address the many dimensions of leadership including the ability to develop a vision along with strategies and tactics to support that vision. Members gain experience in strategic planning and project management, as well as the opportunity to gain exposure to executive sponsors and other senior leaders.

And ABRGs support community events and organizations including the North Texas Food Bank, Dress for Success, Boys and Girls Clubs, Carry the Load, the Salvation Army Angel Tree and many others. Associate Business Resource Groups are invaluable to 7-Eleven’s recruitment marketing strategy.
