Dollar General to Open Store in Otego, Summer 2014 (PHOTO)
One of the nation's largest franchise stores, Dollar General, will open in Otego in the summer of 2014.
Construction is well under way on Rt. 7 near the I-88 exit to Otego. The franchise now operates nearly 11,000 stores nationwide. The company usually opens a small department store in areas not hosting a Wal-Mart. Although the word "dollar" is in the store's name, most items are priced at more than $1.00. The store has been in operation since 1939.
