Convenience Store Slider Sandwiches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The 7-Eleven Hot Slider Sandwiches Come in Three Varieties

— November 20, 2019 — Business
The 7-Eleven Hot Slider Sandwiches are a new prepared food option from the convenience store brand that will offer consumers a tasty, inexpensive way to enjoy a premium snack at their leisure. Priced at just $0.99 each, the sliders come in three flavor options including Cheeseburger, Pulled Pork and Smoked Turkey, which are all crafted with high-quality ingredients. Each of the sandwiches are made with local, award-winning bread to increase the artisan-inspired profile of the mini sandwiches.

Director of Product Development for 7-Eleven Bob Frey spoke on the new 7-Eleven Hot Slider Sandwiches saying, "The new 7‑Eleven sliders are craveable comfort food—great as a mini-meal or hearty snack and easy to grab and eat on the run. Customers can choose a single slider or mix and match their favorites depending on how hungry they are. All of our grab-and-go hot foods are developed with the needs of customers in mind, whether they’re feeding a family or just themselves, picking up something to take to a party or eating in the car.”
