Dollar General is not a traditional big-box store. Its lean store formats, rapid expansion, and operational model focused on efficiency mean suppliers must operate with extreme precision. Orders may be smaller in volume per location but greater in frequency—and fulfillment speed is essential to keeping shelves stocked. Dollar General’s logistics expectations include:

Many vendors underestimate how rigorous Dollar General’s logistics demands can be. Without the right processes, systems, or team in place, even well-established suppliers struggle with:
Dollar General has strict specifications around labeling, appointment windows, pallet sizes, and packaging. Deviations result in costly chargebacks.
Dollar General stores turn over inventory fast. That means you need fulfillment systems ready to process orders with short lead times—without sacrificing accuracy.
If you can’t track inbound and outbound inventory by SKU in real time, you risk overstocking, missed orders, or store-level stockouts.
Dollar General runs frequent themed and seasonal programs—requiring suppliers to scale fulfillment volumes and meet shorter PO turnaround times.
Dollar General relies on EDI to manage order flow. Without automated, fully integrated systems, you’ll face delays, miscommunications, and billing issues.
Dollar General requires fast fulfillment, flawless compliance, and flexible scaling. Most internal logistics teams simply aren’t built for this. That’s why many of the top-performing suppliers outsource to experienced 3PL providers like Buske.
