Sacramento Bee:
7-Eleven, Inc. today announced that it has commenced closing on the acquisition of 55 Sam’s Mart stores from Sam’s Mart LLC. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
But Slurpee® drinks and Big Bite® hot dogs aren’t the only good news 7-Eleven® stores’ return to the Greater Charlotte area brings. The company has begun hiring to fill an additional 120 store positions. 7-Eleven has made job offers to personnel working at the stores the company is acquiring. Pay and benefits will be comparable with what they had at Sam’s Mart.
“We want to provide continuity for the 350 store employees coming to us from Sam’s Mart,” said Doug Doyle, North Carolina native and the new market manager for 7-Eleven’s operation in the greater Charlotte area. “We also are seeking quality employees to support our stores’ food-service programs that will be offered in the future.” Job applicants may go to the Careers section of 7-Eleven’s website to find a link for “Find North Carolina Jobs.”
