7-Eleven, Inc. today announced that it has signed an agreement to operate six convenience-store locations in Virginia from Workman Oil Co. of Lynchburg.

The stores, located in Roanoke and Salem, will be re-branded as 7-Eleven operations starting next week. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

“Adding these appealing locations in Virginia complements our store-development strategy of acquiring retail sites where we currently operate stores,” said Dan Porter, 7-Eleven’s vice president of development. “It also enables us to provide consumers with high-quality, value-oriented fresh-food offerings and further leverage our regional daily-delivery distribution network.”

These six Apple Market convenience stores will remain open during remodeling, and stores will be equipped to sell 7-Eleven signature products, like fresh food and grill items, coffee, Slurpee® and Big Gulp® beverages. The locations will eventually be offered for franchise. In the interim, 7-Eleven has provided employment opportunities to current, qualified store personnel.

This brings the number of 7-Eleven stores operated and franchised in Virginia to just under 700 stores.

The new 7-Eleven locations are at:
3202 Peters Creek Road – Roanoke
5002 Plantation Road - Roanoke
2035 Roanoke Boulevard - Salem
200 Apperson Drive - Salem
1715 E. Main Street - Salem
2723 W. Main Street - Salem
