Dollar General is celebrating two milestones for its Popshelf retail concept.
Popshelf opened its 100th store on Nov. 5, in Chattanooga, Tenn., which also marked its second birthday. Dollar General unveiled Popshelf, with two locations in the Nashville area. Of its current 100 locations, more than 30 are store-within-a-store locations that combine Popshelf and DG Market offerings. (Popshelf currently operates in nine states, having recently opened its first location in Mississippi.)
The retailer is on track to operate approximately 150 standalone stores and 40 combination formats by the end of the 2022 fiscal year. It has set a goal of approximately 1,000 stores by its 2025 fiscal year end.
