7-Eleven opened its first store in Bendigo, Victoria yesterday (23 November).
Located in the suburb of Strathfieldsaye, the store has a team of 13 under the leadership of Dinesh Jakkidi.
This investment is part of 7-Eleven’s focus on providing regional Australians access to career opportunities, and to the same choice and convenience that’s available in metropolitan areas. That focus is expected to see the brand continue to grow in regional Victoria in the next few years.
7-Eleven Area Lead South Nick Maddox says the store team is excited to welcome the community.
“People can grab their favourite products and fill up at any time 24 hours a day, 365 days a year,” he says.
“We have food and convenience options including 7-Eleven’s handmade sandwiches, wraps and Krispy Kreme doughnuts, as well as 7-Eleven’s freshly ground Fairtrade Certified coffee, Slurpee including Slurpee No Sugar options and our frozen blended Smoothies, Frappes and Shakes.
“Our Store Leader Dinesh and his team have been doing an amazing job working to get this store stocked and ready to welcome our customers on opening day.”
The store offers “high quality” Mobil fuels and gives Bendigo locals access to the My 7-Eleven App including the fuel price lock feature.
“Our customers can download the My 7-Eleven App and use the Fuel Price Lock feature to lock in a price on our fuel that might be lower,” says Mr Jakkidi.
“It means customers can choose to fill up using the price they have locked in anytime that suits them within the next seven days. As a bonus, the app has loyalty rewards, offers, discounts and can be linked with your Velocity Frequent Flyer card to earn Points.”
