RAINSVILLE, Ala. — Last month, it was reported that work had begun on a new Dollar Tree in Rainsville. This week, the company confirmed the store's opening on October 24, 2019.

The store, which will occupy the space formerly used by Kilgore Drugs and Rite Aid Pharmacy, is a chain of discount variety stores who specialize in items that are sold for $1 or less. It is a Fortune 500 company based in Chesapeake, Va. with over 14,000 locations across North America.

"Dollar Tree continues to grow and we are proud to be part of the Rainsville community," stated Kayleigh M. Painter, Dollar Tree's Investor and Media Relations Manager. 

According to a statement released by  Dollar Tree, a store of this size will employ anywhere from 12 to 20 associates. Interested applicants can apply online at www.dollartree.com/careers or in person at the store location closer to the opening date.
