Norman Hower, VP, and GM of 7-Eleven Canada said, “We wouldn’t have been able to introduce plant-based products without our partnership with Lightlife®. Canadians’ tastes are changing, and we’re here in the neighborhood to provide what they want. We’re proud to partner with the Lightlife® team on this first-to-market product that tastes great and checks all the boxes of plant-based eating. Lightlife® Plant-based Chick’n Tenders are available 24/7 in 7-Eleven stores across Canada and can also be delivered through 7NOW or on marketplace apps SkipTheDishes, Uber Eats, and DoorDash.”

The Lightlife® Plant-based Chick’n Tenders are created to have the same taste and texture as real chicken tenders. With a delicious breaded exterior and tender inside, perfect for Canadians on the go.

 Dan Curtin, President of Greenleaf Foods, SPC, owner of Lightlife®, said, “We’re thrilled to expand the availability of our Lightlife® Chick’n by partnering with 7-Eleven Canada, to carry our plant-based protein products on their menu. We continue to see strong momentum with our products in the food service sector throughout North America as more consumers try plant-based foods. This latest partnership with 7-Eleven Canada invites plant-based fans and plant-based curious consumers to taste our latest delicious innovation.”

The nuggets are part of 7-Eleven’s Healthy To Go platform, which features a variety of other plant-based options like vegan jerky, almond milk, and non-dairy ice cream.
