In 1927, Joe Thompson, an employee of the Southland Ice Company in Dallas, Texas, began selling eggs, milk, and bread from a makeshift storefront in one of the company??s icehouses. These bare necessities were kept cold thanks to the ice Southland produced, and local residents liked the convenience of avoiding the crowds and aisles of a regular grocery store if they only had to pick up a few items.

By 1946, Southland had several shops under the names Tote'm and City Ice and wanted to give all of its stores a common name. It was Tracy-Locke Advertising that chose the famed ??-11? to reflect the stores new extended hours ?? 7:00 am to 11:00 pm??in order to capitalize on the post-World War II economic boom.

The wife of the company??s president then thought that with all caps, it would seem a little harsh, so she suggested that the ?皀? should be in lower case. This will make the logo more ?癵raceful?? This was allegedly told by Margaret Chabis, the PR Director at 7-Eleven HQ in Texas, but it is unverified.

According to fengshui, since the store is often located in the corner of a street (in Singapore case, some of them in the corner of a shopping centre), the lowercase ?皀? is used as it is ?皊moother? and will, therefore, draw money or luck.
