Seven-Eleven Japan Co will make home delivery available to almost all of its 20,000 stores across Japan by fiscal 2025.
About 550 stores in Tokyo and Hokkaido and Hiroshima prefectures are now conducting trials.
The number of stores is expected to expand to about 1,000 outlets in the three regions in fiscal 2021 ending next March.
Via home deliveries, 7-Eleven customers can receive 2,800 kinds of food items and daily products in as little as 30 minutes after placing orders via the internet.
The service will be available from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
Although 7-Eleven Japan leaves the service availability to store owners' discretion, the majority of stores will likely introduce the system by fiscal 2025.
Membership registration is required to avail of the service.
The orders should be at a minimum of 1,000 yen excluding tax and delivery fee of 330 yen.
