The partnership increases the number of Drizly retailers in the US to more than 5,500.
Drizly chief operating officer Cathy Lewenberg said: “We are incredibly excited to partner with the nation’s leading convenience retailer to further our mission of being the go-to place for people to shop alcohol.
“Drizly offers customers the most convenient way to browse and buy the best selection of beer, wine and spirits online, and collaborating with 7-Eleven expands the ease of our on-demand alcohol delivery to new markets and regions across North America.”
In August, 7‑Eleven partnered with on-demand alcohol delivery service provider Minibar Delivery to deliver alcohol across the US.
Customers aged 21 years or older can place orders through the Minibar Delivery mobile app or website, with orders delivered in 30 to 60 minutes or as arranged by the customer.
