Healthier Food Options

Dollar General is not just about affordability but also committed to providing access to fresh ingredients for customers to create healthier holiday dishes and recently collaborated with Registered Dietician and Nutritionist Mary Alice Cain to develop new seasonal Better For You recipes such as Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes, Green Beans with Crunchy Ramen Topping, Baked Apple Pecan Chicken and Candied Nuts with each serving costing less than $2.50.

"At Dollar General, we understand access to nutritious food is critical," said Allen Warch, vice president and division merchandise manager of food and fresh. "Our team works relentlessly to make healthier options both affordable and accessible for customers and communities. We are proud to exhibit our mission of Serving Others by providing diverse, quality food choices to underserved communities, regardless of their location or economic status."

DG currently offers fresh produce in more than 5,400 stores, and though not a grocer, has more individual points of produce distribution than any other U.S. mass retailer or grocer. As the Company continues to expand its footprint and offerings, its DG Market store format offers fresh meat in approximately 600 locations.

Nourishing Neighbors in Need

In 2021, DG announced an operational partnership with Feeding America to address national food insecurity currently affecting over 44 million Americans. As of September 2024, DG has donated more than $4 million and the equivalent of more than 37 million meals through in-kind donations. Today, DG serves one-third of the nation's counties through the partnership, donating essential food items to neighbors in need across 38 states through its stores and distribution centers, not just during the holidays, but all year long.
