It’s been a hard couple of weeks for 7-Eleven in Vancouver, with the convenience store chain closing multiple locations across the city. Now, another location has closed its doors on the corner of Seymour and Dunsmuir.
The convenience chain has not yet confirmed the closure, but the windows for the location have since been boarded up, and it’s listed as permanently closed on Google.
This is the fourth location that we discovered that has quietly closed in Vancouver, joining the list of locations in Yaletown, West Vancouver, and at 33rd Avenue and Knight Street.

We learned in 2024 that 7-Eleven had plans to shutter over 400 locations across North America; however, we couldn’t get confirmation on how many Canadian or Vancouver stores would be impacted by the decision to scale down. Earlier this year, some reportsĀ suggested that the chain plans on closing even more stores.
Along with closing some locations, the brand will focus on opening larger and more “food-focused” spots to cut costs and improve margins.

Several other locations across Metro Vancouver closed over the past two years, including one on Canada Way near Edmonds and another on Rumble Street.
