Dollar General announced May 9 it would be expanding its supply chain by opening a newly built, dual distribution center in Blair, Nebraska as well as two permanent regional facilities in Newnan, Georgia, and Fort Worth, Texas. Additionally, Dollar General will further develop two of its existing facilities in Jonesville, South Carolina, and Amsterdam, New York.
Once opened, the Nebraska distribution center will create roughly 400 new jobs. Meanwhile, the permanent regional facilities in Georgia and Texas will each employ about 200 people.
A formal grand opening for the Nebraska-based center is scheduled for summer 2023 while construction on the Amsterdam, New York, property will begin in 2024. The expansion of the Jonesville, South Carolina, facility was recently completed in the spring.
“The recent additions to our supply chain network aim to provide greater efficiencies, create additional jobs and drive positive economic impact,” said Tony Zuazo, Dollar General’s executive vice president of global supply chain.
