Dollar Tree Inc. plans to invest $130 million to build a new distribution center in Rosenberg, TX on Spur 10 near Klosterhoff Road. The 1.2-million-square-foot distribution facility, which will service Dollar Tree and Family Dollar stores, is expected to create more than 300 new jobs for the city and surrounding communities in Fort Bend County.

“We currently operate more than 1,600 Dollar Tree and Family Dollar stores in the state of Texas, and we are excited about our new distribution center project in Fort Bend County,” said Dollar Tree’s President and CEO Gary Philbin. “We expect this new, state-of-the-art facility will enhance our supply chain efficiencies and provide convenient access to our network of stores through reduced stem miles, all while creating hundreds of new jobs.”

Construction on the facility will begin in April or May. The center is expected to be operational by summer 2020.
