Dollar General May Be Putting More Food on 650 More Tables
Last week Dollar General announced plans to build a distribution center in Bessemer, Alabama (a suburb of Birmingham, Alabama).
Along with the distribution center will come 650 jobs. That's good news in any economy but especially in an economy such as the one we are currently experiencing.
All told, the average pay will be approximately $12/hr which may not seem like a lot to some people, but to others it's a pretty good way to make an honest living and provide for a family.
The 1 million square foot distribution center will serve as the hub for supplying neighboring states. Dollar General currently has over 100 stores in the region and is a welcomed brand for the cost conscious.
The city is expected to approve an incentive package today and well, we hope the rest will be history in the making. Not only will there be 650 jobs at the distribution center, but guess what? Somebody's got to help build the darn place.
