Philippine Seven Corporation: Building a Legacy with MBC’s Platinum Sponsor
Taguig, Philippines — October 15, 2026. Philippine Seven Corporation, the licensee of 7-Eleven in
the Philippines, is the official platinum sponsor of MBC’s Legacy: MBC’s 45th Anniversary. Philippine Seven has long partnered with MBC, consistently supporting the organization’s advocacies, initiatives, and programs.
Legacy 5000
Opening its first store at EDSA corner Kamias Street in 1984, 7-Eleven is now approaching its 5000th store. This milestone represents decades of growth and the company’s continued commitment to making everyday essentials more accessible to Filipinos.
As 7-Eleven continues to grow its legacy in the country, it aims to make stores more accessible, transactions easier, products more relevant, and the growth more connected to the communities it serves. Not only is the company responding to changing consumer needs (from quick meals to digital payments), but it is also contributing to the growth of the Philippine convenience sector.
Moreover, the company is accelerating its growth nationwide, with a strong strategic focus on expanding its footprint across the Visayas and Mindanao (VisMin) regions to serve even more communities. Ultimately, this growth is not just about opening more stores, but bringing greater convenience to Filipinos.
7-Eleven as the Paboritong Kapitbahay™
7-Eleven aims to make its growth more connected and relevant to the communities it serves. As the Paboritong Kapitbahay™, the company remains steadfast in its goal of being the neighbor you can count on™. The company is evolving its business through the following: (1) establishing digital payment options, (2) strengthening local supply chains, (3) advancing sustainability, and (4) creating value for communities across the country.
Digital Payments and Services
The modern consumer expects both convenient locations and seamless transactions that are responsive to their needs. As such, 7-Eleven bridges the gap between physical and digital convenience. The company is currently expanding its range of digital services, including the CLiQQ mobile app, across 4,605 stores. This reinforces its commitment to simplifying everyday transactions and to the growing role of digital technology in retail.
Local supply chain
By offering opportunities for Filipino suppliers and farmers, 7-Eleven aims to create more value across
local communities. Its vision is to create value across the agricultural value chain, from farm to cup
and farm to table. Initiatives such as including locally sourced coffee beans, rice, fruits, and
vegetables demonstrate how a retailer can contribute to a wider ecosystem of producers, suppliers,
and consumers.
Sustainability
In line with its commitment to serving local communities, 7-Eleven scales its impact by becoming the largest retail network to adapt the government’s Retail Aggregation Program through Ayala Group’s ACEN RES partnership. The partnership provides 100% renewable energy to over 1,450 7-Eleven
stores in Metro Manila, Batangas, Pangasinan, Bulacan, Cavite, and Nueva Ecija. The public can also
expect more rollouts as the convenience store giant continues to expand.
The company will deliver this supply using the same power lines the stores are already connected to, eliminating the need for additional infrastructure or investment in solar rooftop panels and similar equipment.
Makati Business Club was founded in 1981 by Enrique Zobel. At the forefront of economic and social advocacy for the Philippine business sector, MBC has helped lead business efforts to strengthen democratic institutions and liberalize the economy. Ultimately, MBC seeks to create more jobs and better lives for Filipinos by working with businesses, the government, and other partners.
