Answer #6 - How Did 7-Eleven Get it's Name?

Good question and here's a simple answer.

Back in it's beginning from 1927, as just being several local corner stores in the state of Texas, known as Southland Ice, that began to sell items that are ice cold for freshness, such as milks and eggs, but it wasn't until 1946 when the name 7-Eleven was started to be used officially, from the corner's store hours being from 7am - 11pm.
