Dollar General is working to make itself a national retail staple. The budget retailer announced in a recent statement that it is currently constructing new stores in Washington and Wyoming, which will up its national presence to 46 states.
“We look forward to expanding our footprint into Washington and Wyoming and the opportunity to serve new customers with value and convenience through our mission of Serving Others,” said Dan Nieser, Senior Vice President of Real Estate and Store Development. “At Dollar General, our customers are at the center of all we do. We believe the addition of each new Dollar General store presents positive economic growth for the communities we serve through the creation of local career opportunities and the ability for customers to purchase affordable, quality items in our easy-to-shop, small box format.”
According to a press release, stores are currently under construction in Centralia, Washington; Cathlamet, Washington; and Pine Bluffs, Wyoming. They are scheduled to open in early fiscal year 2020.
Dollar General has been busy throughout 2019, building out its distribution capabilities with a new facility and switching up its executive leadership.
Nieser went on to add, “We look forward to being a long-standing business partner in each of the communities we serve and to welcoming new customers into our stores when these projects are completed next year.”
