And what about Northern California? Stay tuned is the message from the Tennessee-based retailer.

The Business Journal reported last summer that Dollar General was starting to make offers on sites in the Sacramento region. At that time, the retailer wouldn?t provide specific information regarding its expansion into California.

Now Dollar General (NYSE: DG) says it plans to open 50 stores in Southern and Central California in the fiscal year that starts in February. The company, which has more than 9,500 stores, will create 1,300 jobs in that part of the state.

?More hiring is expected as Dollar General expands in California,? according to a vague news release.

So what about Northern California? Any details for us? Not yet, company spokeswoman Tawn Earnest said.

Stores average 7,500 square feet.
