7-Eleven plans to sell Killeen store in bunch pitch - Killeen Daily Herald
7-Eleven didn’t respond to media inquires about the sale, but as part of the announcement, the company said the stores “simply do not fit 7-Eleven’s current business model. The Killeen location is a convenience store without a gas station and has operated in the 2,000-square-foot building since 1969, according to NRC’s website. Selling the location will leave the brand with 16 locations in the Killeen-Temple-Fort Hood area, according to 7-Eleven’s website. NRC said the Killeen store will remain operational until it is sold, said Tracey Suppo, NRC Media vice president of marketing. Earlier this year, the company listed 72 7-Eleven locations for sale, and only 15 remained unsold as of Wednesday, Suppo said. A 2013 sale consisting of 135 locations, 77 of which were in Texas, only has one location left. Any of the 75 locations could be purchased as part of a group or single store, stated a NRC news release. Businesses interested in the locations could be looking to expand their current business footprint in a market, expand into a new market or start a business, Suppo said. Source: kdhnews.com
