The Past Meets the Present
From this.....
To this.....
The General Store was created out of necessity; country stores , or general stores got their start during the colonial period for the many pioneers who lived outside urban markets. Many owners of these mercantile began as roving peddlers and once they had accumulated enough capital and inventory, they often established permanent locations in settlements where there was a need and likely profit. In many instances, the country store would be the first business in a new settlement, and sometimes the town would take its name from the store itself. The post office was generally located in the General Store. And who was the potential postmaster that requested a post office and name?-The proprietor of that very same establishment. Sometimes, the owner was also the town clerk, served as Justice of the Peace, or even an undertaker- American History Old-Fashioned Country
Stores.
The first Dollar General store opened in Springfield, Ky. on June 1, 1955, and the concept was simple-no item in the store would cost more than one dollar. The idea became a huge success and other stores owned by J.L. Turner and his son Cal Turner Sr. were quickly converted. By 1957, annual sales of Dollar General's 29 stores were $5 million.
J.L. passed away in 1964. Four years later, the company he co-founded went public as Dollar General Corporation, posting annual sales of more than $40 million and net income in excess of $1.5 million. In 1977, Cal Turner Jr., who joined the company in 1965 as the third generation Turner, succeeded his father as president of Dollar General. Cal Turner Jr. led the company until his retirement in 2002. Under his leadership, the company grew to more than 6,000 stores and $6 billion in sales.
Today, the company is a leading discount retailer with more than 11,500 stores in 40 states. -Company Facts/Dollar General Newsroom
Dacusville will have 3 of the 11,500 Dollar General Stores; currently Dacusville has a Dollar General store located on Earl's Bridge Rd. and on Hwy 183. The new store is located at the intersection on Hwy 183 and 135.
