AnnotationLooks at the role of convenience stores (CVS) in Japan (eg 7-Eleven, Lawson and FamilyMart) as a potential lifeline for older people. CVSs could outgrow their role as mere retailers and become 'lifelines' where a number of services could be provided at a single site _ eg. provision of official certificates, dispensing pharmacies, provision of medical check-ups.
