Since construction started at a site on NC Highway 24 in Beulaville, citizens have been wondering what new business is coming to town. Well, it turns out, it will be a second Dollar General store, though this one will be more of a grocery store, called DG Market.
The new DG Market location is at 2976 East NC Hwy. 24 in Beulaville, next to the Subway restaurant. “At this time, a store opening is slated for early summer 2024,” a statement from Dollar General’s public relations office stated, “but understand that construction progress may alter this date.”
Beulaville’s original Dollar General store at 416 N. Jackson St. will continue to remain open even after the new store is in business. The DG Market has more of a grocery store feel, something that may be needed in the Beulaville area.
“Dollar General’s DG Market format offers expanded produce, refrigerated and frozen food offerings, dairy products and more, in addition to an assortment of fresh meats, alongside the general merchandise customers trust Dollar General to provide,” the statement read. “Each Dollar General, regardless of format, sells quality, name-brand and private brand merchandise such as foods, health and beauty products, home cleaning supplies, housewares, stationery, seasonal items and basic clothing.”
The store is expected to employ 10-15 individuals, depending on the individual needs of the store. Those interested may apply for available positions online at www.dollargeneral.com/careers.
“Our customers are at the center of all that we do, and meeting customers’ needs is Dollar General’s top priority when choosing store locations,” said Dollar General’s public relations office. “In selecting store sites, we take a number of factors into consideration, carefully evaluating each potential new store location to ensure we can continue to meet our customers’ price, value and selection needs. We further strive to provide convenience for customers who may not have affordable nearby retail options.”
