Alimentation Couche-Tard’s lengthy battle to acquire Seven & I has no end in sight, even as the Canadian company ramps up its campaign in a bid to position itself as the likely acquirer. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/03/17/companies/explainer-seveni/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #couchetard #seveniholdings #conveniencestores #retailers #seveneleven

Wow, that's pretty huge!

I peripherally follow the machinations of the massive convenience-store market over many years. #SevenEleven is a huge conglomerate out of Japan, where the "combini" is a totally different, and wonderful animal, compared to our boring slushie-purveyors in North America.

Canadian monster in the space is the #CoucheTard organization, known well in Quebec. They're trying to buy the Seven&I biz which is a $31B operation. Big moves.
