Dollar General to lease 439,000 sq. feet at Tejon Ranch

Discount retailer Dollar General Corp is leasing 439,000 square feet of distribution space at Southern California’s Tejon Ranch industrial real estate complex, according to an announcement.

The complex that Dollar General will inhabit is owned by the Tejon Ranch Company and Rockefeller Group Development Corporation at the Tejon Ranch Commerce Center, part of a 1,450-acre master-planned commercial and industrial development at the junction of Interstate 5 and Highway 99.

"The Tejon Ranch distribution center is strategically located to serve our supply chain needs as we continue to expand westward," said John Flanigan, Dollar General's executive vice president of global supply chain. "From its central location, our supply chain team can deliver goods to stores in northern and southern California in a day," Flanigan said.

Dollar General currently has more than 9,800 stores in 38 states. The retailer said California will be its 39th state and plans to open 50 stores there in 2012.
