Grand opening of DG Saturday

Dollar General is open at 720 Shoshoni St. in Thermopolis and will host a grand opening event on Saturday, November 16 at 8 a.m., which will include $10 complimentary gift cards to the first 50 adult customers and DG tote bags to the first 100 customers.

 “At Dollar General, we believe the addition of our new Thermopolis store provides positive economic growth for the community through the creation of new jobs and career growth opportunities; increased accessibility to affordable products; the generation of tax revenue and access to Dollar General Literacy Foundation grants,” said Matthew Simonsen, Dollar General’s senior vice president of real estate and store development. “As part of our mission of Serving Others, we look forward to being a strong business partner and good neighbor, as well as welcoming customers to our new store.”

 Dollar General plans to create new jobs in the Thermopolis community as the store is expected to employ approximately six to 10 people, depending on the individual needs of the store.
