> make a lot more money as a standard liquor store without the bullshit of the 711 franchise. this is the exact answer. i know two former franchisee for southland (711). they absolutely fuck you 7 ways to sunday. it took these guys several years to wait until some fresh off the boat sucker bought there franschises. southland makes much more money off of immigrants that are new, railroads them into all of the different options, all paid for by uncle sam and the small business loans - grants.  the two former franchisees did well over a million per store, but by the time they were done with fees and required suppliers, they net less than 80k a year.
