Franchisee Rashid Walayat, wife Zara, and approximately eight new team members are thrilled to be celebrating the opening of 7-Eleven Orange North on Tuesday 28 April.

Located at 68 Molong Road, Orange, it’s store number two for Rashid and Zara. The Walayats and their young family have been part of the Orange community for four years. Rashid moved from being a store team member to becoming the franchisee of 7-Eleven Orange in 2016.

Rashid and the team are excited to welcome the community to the new store.

“We are looking forward to welcoming customers to 7-Eleven Orange North. Just like with our other store, customers will be able to shop and fill up the car 24/7, with a good range of everyday essentials available. There’s a large range of fresh food, coffee and treat options to choose from. From our classic hot pastries and handmade, delivered daily, sandwiches, to newer options such as our salads and sushi range, there’s something for everyone. The new store will have 7-Eleven’s $1 freshly ground coffee, Slurpee including Slurpee Low Sugar options, and the popular Krispy Kreme Doughnuts,” Mr Walayat said.

Customers at the store are encouraged to recycle any single use cups.

“At 7-Eleven, we partner with Simply Cups. We’ve helped them to recycle more than 10 million cups since early 2018. We’d encourage everyone to use our Simply Cups recycling unit to recycle any single use cups or straws,” Mr Walayat said.

Orange locals can continue to take advantage of the 7-Eleven Fuel app. Drivers can lock in the cheapest fuel price locally available at the five closest local 7-Eleven stores, and redeem it anytime in the next seven days at any 7-Eleven fuel store. As a bonus the 7-Eleven Fuel app also has regular offers on the great range of products instore.

7-Eleven New South Wales State Manager, Karen Mennie, said that in addition the in-store offer, the 7-Eleven Fuel App is popular in the state.

“Motorists from NSW and ACT have been great supporters of our 7-Eleven Fuel app. Since January 2017, NSW drivers using the 7-Eleven Fuel App have saved more than $8.5 million, an average of $5.51 per fill (average 14 cents per litre saving),” Ms Mennie said.

The Orange North store will offer Mobil brand fuels including Supreme 98, Extra 95, Special E10, Special Unleaded 91 and Special Diesel.
