Geographic presence
Seven & i Holdings is headquartered at 8-8, Nibancho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan. Its geographic reporting distinguishes Japan, North America, and “Others” as geographic area segments.[14][15]
The company’s overseas convenience-store footprint includes North America, Australia, and China, with operations identified in Beijing, Tianjin, and Chengdu. Seven & i describes 7-Eleven International LLC as master franchisor and licensor in 15 countries and regions.[16] [14][15][16]
Business segments
For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2026, Seven & i reported five operating segments. Overseas CVS operations—convenience-store businesses outside Japan—generated ¥8,556.8 billion, approximately 82.0% of consolidated revenue; Domestic CVS operations generated ¥914.5 billion, or 8.8%.[1][5] The company’s group materials describe its domestic and overseas convenience-store businesses.[17][16]
Superstore operations contributed ¥689.4 billion (6.6%), Financial services ¥137.1 billion (1.3%), and Others ¥179.7 billion (1.7%). Shares are approximate, calculated as each reported segment’s revenue divided by consolidated revenue of ¥10,430.2 billion; percentages may not sum exactly because of rounding and consolidation items.[1][5] Beginning with the fiscal year ending February 28, 2027, the company’s revised reporting structure groups operations into Domestic CVS, Overseas CVS, and Others, rather than separately reporting Superstore operations and Financial services.[18][19] [1][5][17][16][18][19]
Company history
Seven & i traces its origins to a clothing store opened by Toshio Yoshikawa in Tokyo in 1920. Its predecessor, Yokado Co., Ltd., was incorporated in 1958 and became Ito-Yokado Co., Ltd. in 1971.[20][21]
In 1973, York-Seven was established under a license agreement with the U.S. operator of 7-Eleven; its first Japanese store opened in 1974, and the company was renamed Seven-Eleven Japan in 1978. In 1991, Ito-Yokado and Seven-Eleven Japan acquired a controlling interest in U.S. parent Southland.[21][22]
Seven & i Holdings was established as a pure holding company on September 1, 2005, bringing Seven-Eleven Japan, Ito-Yokado and Denny’s Japan under its ownership. It completed the acquisition of Speedway’s convenience-store business in 2021 and of Australia’s Convenience Group Holdings in 2024.[23][24][25]
In September 2025, the transfer of its supermarket, specialty-store and related businesses to YORK Holdings was completed, marking a major restructuring of the group.[26] [20][21][22][23][24][25][26]
