The Company also plans to offer produce in up to 10,000 communities over the next several years, with a meaningful number of those stores in current United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) defined food deserts.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cFood insecurity impacts communities across the country, and given that Feeding America projects that 42 million people may face hunger as a result of the pandemic, we want to be part of the solution for those facing this issue,\u201d said Todd Vasos, Dollar General\u2019s CEO. \u201cWith our extensive store footprint, often in communities others have chosen not to serve, Dollar General is uniquely positioned to help combat hunger by offering convenient access to a variety of nutritious foods at affordable prices. Our work with Feeding America builds on these efforts by providing in-kind donations of perishable foods to help nourish and feed those in need. Together with Feeding America and local community food banks, we look forward to making a measurable impact in the fight against food insecurity.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">Produce and Healthier Foods Goals<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nWith approximately 75 percent of the U.S. population living within five miles of one of its general merchandise stores, millions of Americans rely on Dollar General to provide convenient, affordable access to the everyday products they need and want, including the components of a nutritious meal such as milk and dairy products, bread, frozen and canned vegetables, canned fruits, grains and more. Dollar General also has partnered with a registered nutritionist to create <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dollargeneral.com%2Finspiration%2Feasy-meals%2Fbetter-for-you.html&amp;esheet=52453842&amp;newsitemid=20210630005904&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=DG+Better+For+You&amp;index=1&amp;md5=4b196cd1045ee8ca954dab5595b6417d\">DG Better For You<\/a> meals, which provide healthier recipes for each meal of the day with items sourced from DG stores, and created the Good &amp; Smart\u00ae private brand to provide yet another healthier option to customers.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Company currently offers fresh produce in more than 1,300 stores, providing the top 20 items typically sold in grocery stores and approximately 80 percent of produce categories carried by most grocers. Dollar General plans to expand this offering in up to 10,000 stores, including a meaningful number of stores located in food deserts.\n<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">Feeding America Partnership<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIn partnering with Feeding America, Dollar General is excited to bring together the nation&#8217;s largest domestic hunger-relief organization and the nation\u2019s largest retailer by store count to positively impact food insecurity concerns, especially in rural America.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDollar General\u2019s work with Feeding America will be highlighted by a $1 million donation, as well as in-kind donations of perishable and nutritious food to community food banks. At full operational capacity, Dollar General seeks to provide up to 20 million meals each year*. This will not only help alleviate hunger in the communities it calls home, but also nearly double the number of stores in which Feeding America services.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe partnership further aims to enhance Feeding America\u2019s rural hunger initiatives and provide more food donations to 95 percent of member food banks across the country. Additionally, it aims to support otherwise underserved communities with valuable food resources through Dollar General\u2019s unique real estate footprint with approximately 75 percent of its stores serving communities of 20,000 or fewer individuals.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cEach year, billons of pounds of food go to waste, while millions of Americans face hunger. Feeding America is grateful to Dollar General for ensuring that good, wholesome unsold food gets to people who need it most. We are also grateful for their generous donation of $1 million, which will help provide meals to children and families in rural communities,\u201d said Claire Babineauz-Fontenot, CEO of Feeding America.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDollar General and Feeding America initially began testing food donations in summer 2020 in several Indianapolis and Atlanta-area stores, and Dollar General recently expanded its donation footprint to its DG Fresh cold storage facilities. In 2020, Dollar General\u2019s donations provided more than two million meals to those in need.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition to weekly collections, the partnership will provide opportunities for Feeding America and local food banks to collect food items during times of crisis. For example, when Hurricane Zeta impacted an Atlanta-area DG store in October 2020, Feeding America and its partners at the Atlanta Community Food Bank quickly collected food items and distributed them within the community.\n<\/p>\n<p><i>*According to the USDA, 1.2 pounds is equivalent to one meal.<\/i><\/p>\n<p>\nFor additional information, photographs or items to supplement a story, please visit the <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fnewscenter.dollargeneral.com%2F&amp;esheet=52453842&amp;newsitemid=20210630005904&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=DG+Newsroom&amp;index=2&amp;md5=63b4836c7d1d1ef0d4d2321165359994\">DG Newsroom<\/a>, contact the Media Relations Department at 1-877-944-DGPR (3477) or via email at <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"mailto:dgpr@dg.com\">dgpr@dg.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About Feeding America<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nFeeding America\u00ae is the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States.
