DG Private Brands
Dollar General retails more than 3,200 consumable private brand
products backed by the Company’s 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Dollar General’s private brands offer highly consumable national
brand equivalent and alternative products including Clover Valley®
food and beverages, DG Health™ over-the-counter medications,
TrueLiving® and Smart & Simple® paper and cleaning products,
Heartland Farms® pet food and treats, Studio Selection™ personal
care products and more.
DG was recently awarded a Progressive Grocer Editors’ Pick for
Clover Valley® Lobster Bites, and Private Label Manufacturers’
Association Salute to Excellence awards for Clover Valley® Vanilla
Caramel Ice Cream Cones and TrueLiving® Heavy Duty Non-Stick
Aluminum Foil.
“As shoppers seek value and quality, we continually listen to
customer feedback to identify opportunity gaps,” said Emily Taylor,
executive vice president and chief merchandising officer. “With
more than half of our customers’ baskets having at least one
private brand item, we are proud to make significant investments in
our private brands, bringing even more on-trend products and pantry
staples to shelves.”
New for 2025
Clover Valley® is the retailer’s largest brand by sales,
achieving more than $2.3B in retail sales for fiscal 2023,
eclipsing all other brands carried at DG. Clover Valley® currently
offers more than 600 items. For Q1 2025, DG plans to add
approximately 100 new private brand products, more than half of
which will be under the Clover Valley® name. New items will include
honey mustard, blue cheese and thousand island salad dressings,
apple cinnamon fruit and grain bars, caramel and vanilla coffee
enhancer syrups, 100% white grape peach juice, sugar-free breakfast
syrup, cinnamon rolls, biscuits and eight flavors of ice cream.
“Our customers can’t afford to make a mistake when shopping.
They need the value that our private brands offer, but with the
assurance that the products will meet or exceed their quality
expectations,” said Angela Martin, vice president of consumer
insights and branding. “Customers don’t want to feel like they are
settling.”
Save Time. Save Money. Everyday.®
Beyond DG’s everyday values, the Company last fall launched
weekly deals on 2,000 or more products through digital coupons,
cash back offers and instant savings, representing approximately
20-25% of the total products in store. The campaign educates
shoppers on the DG app to surface the most savings through deal
clipping capabilities and highlights DG’s brands through ‘Switch to
Save’ callouts, providing customers with added opportunities to
maximize their budget. Additionally, DG is highlighting its brands
throughout National Private Brands Month with a DG Brands flyer,
email and social media.
Though the Company evolved from its single price-point roots
decades ago, DG continues to serve shoppers by offering
approximately 2,000 items at $1 or less. The Value Valley section
of the store, where everything is $1, features 250-300 products
that regularly rotate including home cleaning, personal care,
over-the-counter medications and more.
