How does Dollar Tree make money?

Dollar Tree makes money by finding ways to sell products at a lower cost to maximize profit. For example, Dollar Tree sells private-label branded products. This helps to sell products in non-standard sizes, which are cheaper to produce, and then maximize the profit earned per item.

Another way that Dollar Tree maximizes its profits is by purchasing overstock merchandise at a lower cost per item. They all purchase off-brand merchandise which can be cheaper than the name brand.
