Discount chain offering groceries, household goods, and beauty products
"The combined company, formed after an acquisition in 2015, has rapidly expanded its footprint and—along with the other major dollar chain—accounted for a large share of new outlets in USDA-designated food deserts. The stores are common in urban food deserts and emphasize low-priced, small-quantity packaged goods and household items that provide real value for everyday essentials, even though per-unit prices can be higher than at full-service grocers. Their ubiquity in underserved neighborhoods raises concerns that they fill short-term needs but do little to improve food quality, food sovereignty, or long-term access to fresh produce." - Claire Kelloway
