The Dollar General will be opening in Thompson Falls in the near future. The first one to open in Montana was in Columbia Falls, in September 2023.

"The new store at 1092 Main Street in Thompson Falls is currently under construction and is slated to open in fall 2023," a Dollar General Public Relations representative told The Ledger.

The Dollar General's mission is serving others, the company representative said in an email. "Dollar General is deeply involved in the communities it serves and is an ardent supporter of literacy and education through the Dollar General Literacy Foundation, which awards grants each year to nonprofit organizations, schools and libraries within a 15-mile radius of a DG store or distribution center," they added.

The store will employ 6-10 employees. Anyone interested in applying for available positions can visit http://www.dollargeneral.com/careers.lar General is under construction and slated to open this fall.
