Dollar General Corp. also is leasing an Imeson International Industrial Park distribution center in North Jacksonville.
The Tennessee-based retailer has been hiring for the center at 10760 Yeager Road, a 408,240-square-foot building developed by Webb International Inc.
Dollar General says it “has been delivering value to shoppers for more than 80 years … by offering products that are frequently used and replenished, such as food, snacks, health and beauty aids, cleaning supplies, basic apparel, housewares and seasonal items at everyday low prices in convenient neighborhood locations.”
On its website, dollargeneral.com, it says it operates more than 19,000 stores in 47 states and territories.
Imeson International Industrial Park Inc. President Dan Webb said by email Oct. 14 that Dollar General began occupying the warehouse Oct. 1.
He said it will distribute retail goods.
Cushman & Wakefield Managing Directors Tyler Newman and Jacob Horsley represented the landlord.
Webb said Food Properties Group, a California-based real estate brokerage firm, represented Dollar General in the lease transaction.
