廣東便利店

Preface

I have been in Shenzhen for twenty days now, and the city has already left a profound impression on me. Beyond the overwhelming impact of its vast urban villages, I was struck by the sheer number of small-scale convenience store brands scattered across the streets. In my experience, convenience stores are typically represented by major chains like FamilyMart, Lawson, and 7-Eleven—or at least by prominent local brands such as Meiyijia. However, further research revealed that there is no consensus on the exact number of convenience store brands operating in Shenzhen. This uncertainty has inspired me to document every convenience store name I encounter during my daily journeys.
