N. GROSVENORDALE — Dollar General announces it is currently under construction on a new store at 706 Riverside Drive in N. Grosvenordale, with an anticipated grand opening celebration scheduled for summer 2016.  
The store will employ approximately six to 10 employees, depending on the individual needs of the store.  Anyone interested in joining one of America’s fastest-growing retailers may apply online at www.dollargeneral.com/careers.  With over 12,000 retail locations and 114,000 employees throughout the country, Dollar General offers its employees opportunities to start and/or grow their care
Dollar General stores offer convenience and value to customers by providing a focused selection of national name brands and private brands of food, housewares, seasonal items, cleaning supplies, basic apparel and health/beauty products. The store’s layout is designed to make shopping simple for customers.  Seasonal products are displayed in the center of the store, departments are easily recognizable with visible signage and coolers are conveniently located at the front of the store.
“Meeting our customers’ needs is our top priority when choosing store locations,” said Dan Nieser, Dollar General’s senior vice president of real estate and store development. “We know convenience is a major factor in our customers’ shopping decisions as we generally serve customers within a 3-5 mile radius, or 10 minute drive.  This new location is a great fit for Dollar General.”
Dollar General gives its customers more than everyday low prices on basic merchandise as part of its mission of Serving Others.  Dollar General is deeply involved in the communities it serves and is an ardent supporter of literacy and education through the Dollar General Literacy Foundation, which awards approximately $12 million each year to nonprofit organizations, schools and libraries within a 20-mile radius of a Dollar General store or distribution center to support adult, family, summer and youth literacy programs.
At the cash register of every Dollar General store, customers interested in learning how to read, speak English or get their General Education Diploma (GED) can pick up a brochure with a postage-paid reply card that can be mailed in for a referral to a local organization that offers free literacy services. Since its inception in 1993, the Dollar General Literacy Foundation has awarded more than $100 million in grants to nonprofit organizations, helping nearly six million individuals take their first steps toward literacy or continued education.
