Products & services

Dollar Tree also offers same-day delivery through Instacart and Uber Eats.

Geographic presence

At January 31, 2026, Dollar Tree operated 9,005 stores in the contiguous United States and the District of Columbia, and 277 stores across seven Canadian provinces. The U.S. and Canada accounted for approximately 97% and 3%, respectively, of its 9,282-store footprint.[18] The company reports Dollar Tree segment sales, which include its U.S. and Canadian operations, but does not provide a country-level revenue split in the geographic information cited here.[1]

Its distribution network included 16 U.S. distribution centers and two third-party Canadian facilities, located in British Columbia and Ontario.[19][20] Dollar Tree’s principal executive offices are in Chesapeake, Virginia; the company also identifies a store support center there.[21][22] [18]+6

Business segments

For FY2025, ended January 31, 2026, Dollar Tree reported one reportable business segment: **Dollar Tree**. It comprises Dollar Tree and Dollar Tree Canada stores and related distribution operations. The stores sell a range of everyday merchandise, primarily at a $1.25 opening price point with additional higher-priced offerings. The segment generated $19.4 billion in net sales—approximately 100% of continuing-operations net sales reported in the segment results.[1][5]

**Corporate, support and other** is shown separately for reporting purposes, rather than as another reportable segment; it primarily includes store-support-center costs and Summit Pointe property results, and reported no net sales in the FY2025 segment table. Effective in Q4 FY2024, Family Dollar ceased to be reported as a segment; following its July 5, 2025 sale, its results are presented as discontinued operations.[1]+2 [1]+2

Company history

Dollar Tree traces its retail roots to 1953, when K.R. Perry opened a Ben Franklin variety store in Norfolk, Virginia. In 1986, Macon Brock, Doug Perry, and Ray Compton launched the *Only $1.00* chain with five stores; the company adopted the name Dollar Tree Stores in 1994 and went public in 1995.[25]

The company expanded through acquisitions and store growth: it acquired Dollar Express in 2000 and 138 Deal$ stores in 2006. In 2010, it entered Canada by acquiring 86 Dollar Giant stores.[25][26]

In 2014, Dollar Tree agreed to acquire Family Dollar, completing the transaction in July 2015.[27][28] After a strategic alternatives review, Dollar Tree sold Family Dollar; the sale closed in July 2025.[24][29] [25]+9
