“When Dollar General pioneered the ‘dollar store’ format in 1955, few food products were offered. With continual growth and changes to the Company’s business model, our product selection has evolved,” said Jackie Li, senior vice president of private brands and global sourcing. “Customers shared that they believe in the quality and equity of Clover Valley and were receptive to more innovative products. We have put ‘Food First’ this year because we see a need and to fulfill the desire for even more options.”

Dollar General’s ‘Food First’ initiative is a broader strategy to provide customers with healthier options including more food products and fresh food. While not a grocer, approximately 80% of DG stores serve communities of 20,000 or fewer people with many Americans, especially in rural areas, relying on the retailer for their basic, everyday and household essentials.

Recently, consumables accounted for approximately 80% of total sales at DG and the Company’s research indicates that DG offers a price advantage over most food and drug retailers, with prices that are competitive with even the largest discount retailers. Dollar General recently announced that 80% of new stores and nearly all store relocations for FY23 will be in one of DG’s larger store formats, which provides the opportunity for a significant increase in cooler count, as well as the ability to add fresh produce in many stores. As of Q1 2023 DG offers fruits and vegetables in nearly 3,900 stores with plans to have produce in 5,000 locations by January 2024, giving the Company more individual points of produce distribution than any other U.S. mass retailer or grocer.
