7-Eleven has mastered collaborating with popular brands that can stir excitement among its customers. This month, 7-Eleven goers can jump on another awesome adventure as a legendary partnership is making noise in regions far and wide: that between the convenience store giant and one of the most beloved media franchises in the world, Pokemon. Yes, a 7-Eleven Pokemon Themed Store has finally reached the Philippines!
A brand that’s captured the hearts of many with its range of video games, animated series and films, trading cards, and mobile apps, Pokemon’s zest for exploration will definitely provide an irresistible thrill for fans of the franchise and 7-Eleven alike. The partnership was launched today, September 13, 2024 with a ribbon-cutting held at 7-Eleven Centris 1 in Quezon City. Present at the milestone occasion were representatives from 7-Eleven Philippines, The Pokemon Company, and Ninantic Inc., the company of the mobile game Pokemon GO.
Both brands kicked things off by wrapping 7-Eleven Centris 1 in Quezon City in full Pokemon decor. To add to the fun, 7-Eleven Centris 1 has also been turned into a PokeStop in Pokemon Go along with the rest of the Philippine 7-Eleven Stores. Customers can now venture to the branch nearest to them for the full Pokemon experience by channeling their inner trainer and catching their coveted Pokemon through the Pokemon GO app.
