Why did 7-11 perform mediocrely in the United States but expand rapidly in Japan?

When we mentioned 7-Eleven, the world's largest chain of convenience stores, many people thought it came from Japan, but they only got half the answer right. Its predecessor was in the United States, but in 1991, 7-Eleven Japan reverse-acquired 73% of the shares of the old American 7-Eleven headquarters. 7-Eleven belongs to Japan from then on. So why does Japan's 7-Eleven make convenience stores so powerful?

Behind every powerful enterprise there is a leader who is supporting him. He is Suzuki Toshifumi. After graduating from university, he worked as a book salesman at a Tokyo publishing house. However, the stable, day-to-day work made him very depressed. Later, he decided to get out of his comfort zone and start to challenge new things. With rich experience, he directly entered Ito-Yokado. At that time, this large supermarket was in a bottleneck period. He was sent to the United States for study and inspection, and came into contact with 7-Eleven in the United States. At that time, this convenience store was very popular in the United States, but it was only operated locally and had not yet expanded convenience stores to the world. So Toshifumi Suzuki came up with the idea of ​​introducing it to Japan.
