The Quantum PulseDollar Store Report, March 2019

DOLLAR STORE INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

The Dollar & Variety store sectors have grown by 2.8% to reach revenue of $77 billion in 2018. In the same time-frame, the number of businesses has grown by 2.3% with an increase of 3.5% in employment growth. By 2021, the number of Dollar stores in the U.S. is expected to grow to about 38,000. Over the past ten years, the industry has experienced steady store count growth, averaging upwards of 700 new stores annually in recent years. The market is dominated by Dollar General, Dollar Tree and Family Dollar accounting for more than 75% of the market share. Notably, Dollar Tree acquired Family Dollar in 2015. Locations take advantage of demographics in smaller commu-nities typically too small for larger retailers.

The industry has historically targeted exclusively low-income earners, this consumer pool has expand-ed in recent years, shrinking the gap between middle-class shoppers and even some high-income earners. Bargain shopping has become an increasing point of pride for many wealthy consumers, and this trend has drastically increased the industry’s customer base. Despite top-line revenue growth, both companies are struggling with contracting gross margins. Both companies are working towards operating efficiencies and are still experiencing positive operating income growth in the last quarter.

A real estate review of the market indicates a saturation of properties with lower NOIs. Better per-forming locations are still available with incomes above six-figures with wide swings geographically. (see Median Asking Cap Rate and Price by Region).
