Family Dollar and Dollar Tree will close 1,000 stores
Family Dollar, the struggling discount chain that caters to low-income customers predominantly in cities, said Wednesday it will close nearly 1,000 stores.
Years of mismanagement and poor conditions in stores have hurt Family Dollar’s brand. Family Dollar, which is owned by Dollar Tree, was recently fined more than $40 million for a rat infestation at a warehouse that forced hundreds of stores to temporarily close.
Decades-high inflation has hit shoppers hard, and a general consumer pullback has impacted Family Dollar customers and the chain’s profits, exacerbating its battle with discount competitors such as Dollar General, Walmart and others.
In addition, the reduction in benefits for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, has left struggling families with as much as $250 less per month. Discount stores and consumer goods companies say they have felt the impact of that loss.

That just means there will be one every 100 feet instead of every 50 feet.

Bidenomics is working! People are too rich to shop at that dump.
He'll probably get 100 million votes this time.

I don't know how dollar stores can make it in this economy, period. Stuff is just way too expensive, and their profit margins have to be iffy to begin with. Anytime I've gone to dollar stores (like 5x in my lifetime), it's almost entirely useless crap I wouldn't want anyway. I can't imagine people are wanting to pay double to triple what they were paying for the same garbage at those places just a few years ago.

Wut I don't get is how the gov can fine a company 40 million because they got a rat infestation. Why not make it 1 million.

Due to high inflation the last couple of years it is more like the $5 dollar tree store.
I read that high inflation is mainly responsible for the stores closings.
