So How Can You Get 7-Eleven To Carry Your New Beverage?

There are multiple ways of getting in contact with a 7-Eleven buyer.

You can call their corporate headquarters and ask to speak to the beverage buyer.

They also have a form for new vendors to fill out on their corporate website.

You can also get your beverage into 7-Eleven by selling your beverage to their preferred distributors, such as McLanes and other independent beverage distributors.


Sell Your Product to a 7-Eleven Wholesaler

McLanes is a $30 billion dollar supply chain services company, providing distribution services to thousands of convenience stores including all 7-eleven corporate and franchisee stores.

There are other distributors and wholesalers that can sell and deliver your new beverage to 7-Eleven.


Contact a National Broker That Has A Relationship with 7-Eleven

Advantage Sales and Marketing is a national brokerage sales company that calls on thousands of national c-store chains.

There are also other brokers and wagon jobbers that are authorized to sell products to 7-eleven.

7-Eleven is in the business of franchising

Getting an Authorization from 7-eleven does not mean all their stores will carry your product.

They will issue you an authorization meaning that your product is in their system and their franchise stores can order your product if they want to.

You still have to call and sell your product to their independent owners if you are selling your product through a wholesaler like Mclanes.

If you have a DSD distributor selling your product, then their sales reps will visit all the 7-Elevens in their territory and sell your product in.

So don't think you will gain national distribution in all their stores just because you receive an authorization...it's up to their franchise owners to order your product.
