I'm pretty sure 7-11 is actually owned by a Japanese company these days.

According to the wiki, it's been majority Japanese owned since 1991. The North American stores rely too heavily on terrible stuff tho

There's been talk of a bit of a retooling to make the American stores more Japanese, but I haven't lived in a 7-11 region for a while. (Though I thought they'd bought out one of the chains locally and were going to rebrand them, it hasn't happened)

That it is, though recently with a Canadian company trying to acquire a controlling interest.
