Dollar General Announces First Hour of Operations to be Dedicated to Senior Customers

VICTORVILLE, Calif. — Dollar General announced plans to dedicate the first hour of each shopping day to senior shoppers beginning tomorrow, March 17, 2020.

The company said it wants to provide at-risk customers with the ability to purchase the items they need and want at the beginning of each day to avoid busier and more crowded shopping periods.

Additionally, all stores will close an hour earlier in order for employees to clean, restock shelves as well as for their health and wellbeing.

“During these unprecedented times, Dollar General is diligently working to meet the ongoing needs of our customers and communities. We are proud to live our mission and provide customers with everyday low prices on the household essentials that are used and replenished most often,” said Todd Vasos, Dollar General’s CEO.
