Dollar General Market has opened 224 E, Stage Coach Trail in Lawndale.

The new DG Market store format features an expanded selection of fresh meats, fruits and vegetables, as well as the same categories, brands and products typically found at Dollar General.

“We are excited to provide Lawndale residents with our new DG Market format and look forward to welcoming customers to our new location,” said Matthew Simonsen, Dollar General’s senior vice president of real estate and store development. “The new DG Market format aims to provide the Lawndale community with closer access to fresh and healthier foods and a convenient location to purchase the items they want and need at everyday low prices.”

To help commemorate the opening of DG’s new Lawndale location, Dollar General plans to donate 100 new books to a nearby elementary school to benefit students ranging from kindergarten to fifth grade. In partnership with the Kellogg Company, the donation will be part of more than 60,000 books in fiscal year 2023 across the country to celebrate new DG store openings.

Dollar General plans to create new jobs in the Lawndale community as the store is expected to employ approximately 15-17 people, depending on the individual needs of the store.
