Dollar General Corporation recently announced its plans to open 625 new stores and hire more than 6,000 employees this year. Each new store will employ six to 10 full- and part-time employees. Workers will receive competitive wages and flexible schedules and may have to undergo a
background check.
The majority of the new stores will be located in the 35 states where Dollar General already has a presence. However, three new states - including Connecticut, Nevada, and New Hampshire - will see these stores for the first time.
"Bringing our store model of convenience and value to more people in more states is an
exciting opportunity for us," Rick Dreiling, chairman and CEO of Dollar General, said. "We believe the new communities and states we are entering will benefit from the new jobs, shopping choices and dedication to community found at Dollar General."
Dollar General continues to expand its presence in suburban, rural, and metropolitan markets. Including the thousands of jobs to be added this year, the company has seen two years of job growth, adding more than 15,000 jobs between 2009 and 2011.
Dollar General, a discount retail chain headquartered in Tennessee, currently operates more than 9,200 locations. In addition to opening hundreds of new stores this year, the company also plans to remodel or relocate 550 of its existing stores.
