Tedeschi Food Shops Officially Part of 7-Eleven

DALLAS — 7-Eleven Inc. completed its acquisition of approximately 180 Tedeschi Food Shops locations Monday. This adds to its existing portfolio of 150 7-Eleven convenience stores in the greater Boston and southern New Hampshire region.

Tedeschi store employees and most non-store personnel have received job offers from 7-Eleven, according to the announcement.

The Tedeschi acquisition is part of 7-Eleven's accelerated growth plan.

"The Tedeschi Food Shops stores complement our 7-Eleven store operations in the greater Boston area because of their geographical locations, foodservice focus, community-involved franchisees and commitment to serving their neighborhoods," stated Stan Reynolds, 7-Eleven's chief financial officer and executive vice president.

Dallas-based 7-Eleven revealed in May that it planned to acquire Rockland, Mass.-based Tedeschi, as CSNews Online previously reported.
