Convenience Store Coffee Pods

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Retailer is Now Producing Its Own Inexpensive Coffee Pods

— October 5, 2015 — Lifestyle
7‑Eleven recently announced that it is now selling its own line of convenience store coffee pods. While brands such as Nespresso and Keurig specialize in providing superior single-serve coffee, 7-Eleven places the emphasis on value. The retailer who pioneered the introduction of on-the-go-coffee is now offering the same level of convenience at home.

7‑Eleven will now sell single-serve coffee pods in two package sizes. Consumers can choose between an eight-pack or a two-pack. Each pack comes at a price point that is highly affordable for the average consumer. Overall, 7-Eleven's convenience store coffee pods cost well below the average price of comparable single-serve brew cups. Despite the low price point, the 7-Eleven pods are still filled with high-quality coffee. Consumers can choose between 7-Eleven's Regular Exclusive, the 100% Colombian blend or the seasonal Pumpkin Spice.

7-Eleven's new line of convenience store coffee pods provide consumers with the same quality coffee they enjoy at a price they can afford.
