The eagerly anticipated Dollar General store at 8035 Pea Ridge Road in Brookville has been in the works for several months and is finally nearing completion. The grand opening of the store is expected within the coming month. The Dollar General is only 12 miles from Liberty, making it not only accesible to the residents of Union County, but also for tourists staying at Quakertown State Recreation Area.

“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 Emma Hall, Dollar General’s public relations coordinator. “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.”

The store will employ approximately six to 10 employees, depending on the store’s individual needs. Anyone interested in joining one of America’s fastest-growing retailers with competitive wages and benefits, world-class training and development and the ability to further their career through the growing organization may apply for available positions online at www.dollargeneral.com/careers.

“Dollar General 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,” Hall explained. “In addition to high-quality private brands, Dollar General sells products from America’s most-trusted brands such as Clorox, Procter & Gamble, Kimberly-Clark, Unilever, Kellogg’s, General Mills, Nabisco, Hanes, PepsiCo and Coca-Cola.”

Dollar General takes great pride in being an integral part of the community by giving back to the neighborhoods it serves.

“Dollar General gives its customers more than everyday low prices on merchandise as part of its mission of serving others,” Hall shared.  “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 grants each year to nonprofit organizations, schools and libraries within a 15-mile radius of a Dollar General store or distribution center to support adult, family, summer and youth literacy programs. Since its inception in 1993, the DGLF has awarded more than $254 million in grants to nonprofit organizations, helping more than 21.8 million individuals take their first steps toward literacy or continued education.  For more information about the Dollar General Literacy Foundation and its grant programs, visit www.dgliteracy.com.” 

The Dollar General Literacy Foundation is committed to supporting individuals in the communities served by Dollar General stores interested in improving their literacy skills. This includes offering resources for individuals looking to learn to read, improve their English-speaking abilities, or prepare for the high school equivalency test. Referrals to local organizations that provide free literacy services can be found online or by sending in a postage-paid reply card available to request more information.
