Get 7-Eleven Franchise in the Philippines

GET 7-ELEVEN FRANCHISE IN THE PHILIPPINES ?



I've been in Metro Manila the previous week to take a break from work and enjoy the skyline of the major cities (Manila, Makati, etc.,) of the Philippines. Well, as a guy who lives in the province and as an internet entrepreneur who works at home, vacation for me means wandering in the busy cities of this country. If I live and work in Makati, then vacation for me might be visiting our province. It's an opposing situation, you know what I mean. I stayed in a budget hotel, actually in a Pension House in Malate, Manila. As we know, Manila is a city that never sleeps. Thus, when we are still outside our home or outside our room, and we feel the hunger, the places where we go to buy the food and other stuff we need are convenience stores, which are open for business 24-hours a day. 7-eleven is one convenience store that everyone knows and trusts in Metro Manila. This is also where I go to buy some snacks and even have my dinner whenever I feel starvation while I'm walking along the streets of the big cities. In our province of Leyte, there are no 7-eleven stores. That is why I got interested in knowing how to get a 7-Eleven Franchise in the Philippines. The following are the information I got from their official website.
