Come September 16, and there is a good chance to meet Dollar General’s merchandise buyers and category managers, and more than that there’s an opportunity work with the retail giant.
With 16,500 stores in 46 states, Dollar General is going to hold its virtual 2020 Supplier and Diversity Innovation Summit on the above-mentioned date. Notably, the company also sources apparels from India.
This virtual event will provide an opportunity to companies, which have not worked with Dollar General in the past 18 months, to work with the retail stalwart again.
Jason Reiser, EVP and Chief Merchandising Officer, said “We are excited to host this event and engage with potential new vendors as a part of Dollar General’s continual efforts to provide relevant products to our customers.”
Jason added “We are grateful for the continued partnership with Efficient Collaborative Retail Marketing (ECRM) to support these ongoing efforts, and we look forward to learning about how new businesses and products can best serve our customers.”
“Respecting the dignity and differences of others is a core value and cultural cornerstone of Dollar General, and this year’s Supplier and Diversity Innovation Summit reflects our ongoing efforts to offer the right products for each unique customer and community we serve,” said Johné Battle, Dollar General’s vice president of diversity and inclusion.
To apply, interested suppliers, companies and manufacturers may submit their product information at www.rangeme.com/dgsupplierdiversity from 22 July through 7 August 2020.
