7-Eleven

Old name: Tote’m

The Tote’m convenience stores, founded by Joe C. Thompson and Jefferson Green, were so called because customers toted away their items. The name didn’t last long. The business that started in 1927 was one of the first companies that changed names when it transformed into

7-Eleven in 1946. The switch reflected the store’s new hours at the time: 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., seven days a week.
