7-Eleven’s Slurpee® Truck rolls into the Motor City
for a special visit to the Slurpee capital of the USA
FREE Slurpee Drinks on Tuesday, April 16, in Cadillac Square
Detroit is the Slurpee® capital of the USA, and 7-Eleven, Inc. hopes to return to
the city to make Slurpee drinks — both
regular and the sugar-free Slurpee Lite™ — available to Detroiters all the time. In
anticipation of a new permanent home in the Motor City ,
7-Eleven, Inc.’s Slurpee Truck will make a special visit to Detroit on Tuesday,
April 16, from 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. with FREE Slurpee beverages at 13 Cadillac Square Woodward
Avenue Cadillac Square
Detroit is making a comeback and with several
proposed downtown store locations, 7-Eleven wants to be part of the new
Detroit’s downtown central business district as well as in neighborhoods such as Mexican Town, the Fashion District,
Harbortown and the lower east side.
In addition to bringing food and fill-in shopping to the area, 7-Eleven’s Detroit presence will also provide business
opportunities as the new stores become available to franchise. Additionally,
the company’s Business Conversion
Program (BCP) offers existing independent operators of gas stations,
convenience, liquor and small grocery operations the chance to re-brand their
business as a 7-Eleven store and benefit from the company’s products, services
and systems.
7-Eleven is a local,
national and international brand that commits to the communities in which it
does business. 7-Eleven gives local community members opportunities to be
successful business people through its franchise program, while also making a
positive impact on the community through its charitable programs.
Introduced last
summer, Slurpee Lite™, promises all of the flavor of a traditional
Slurpee® drink with 50 percent fewer calories. It is the first Slurpee-branded,
sugar-free frozen beverage to be available at participating 7-Eleven stores
nationwide.
