Second discount retailer from Dollar General company open in Myrtle Beach area

A new discount retail store from the Dollar General company has popped up in the Myrtle Beach area.

The area’s second pOpshelf store, this one in Carolina Forest, is open for business at 4769 Highway 501, near the Dick’s Pawn Superstore.

pOpshelf, the Dollar General company’s new discount chain, features seasonal and home décor; health and beauty products; home cleaning supplies; household and specialty items; arts and crafts; party planning and entertaining needs; toys; and electronics, among other items. Most pOpshelf products are $5 or less.

The store is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., according to the company’s website.

Myrtle Beach’s first pOpshelf store opened last fall at 1101 Seaboard Street, near Sonic and Sam’s Club off Mr. Joe White Avenue.

pOpshelf was introduced in Nashville, Tenn., in the fall of 2020. Dollar General planned to operate approximately 50 locations and 25 store-within-a-store locations in various markets by the end of the 2021 fiscal year, according to a press release from the company.

Each pOpshelf store is expected to create up to 15 new jobs. Candidates interested in employment may apply for positions at https://careers.popshelf.com.
