BJ’s Wholesale Club opened its newest store in McDonough, Ga., recently, the company's sixth location in Georgia, for a total of 237 U.S. clubs overall.

The new store in Georgia, which will have a BJ's Gas location, follows recent opening of a BJ’s club in Davenport, Fla., its 36th location in that state.

Earlier in February, the company announced plans to open its first location in the state of Tennessee by the first half of the year, reports Chain Store Age. Located in La Vergne, 20 miles southeast of Nashville, the store will mark BJ’s 19th state of operation.

BJ’s donates unsold perishable food to Feeding America member food banks in its footprint, helping to get wholesome food onto the plates of families. In McDonough, BJ’s foodbank partner is the Atlanta Community Food Bank. To date, BJ’s has donated more than 140 million pounds of food including meat, produce, dairy, and bakery items to Feeding America member food banks, reports CSA.

“Our Atlanta Community Food Bank team is incredibly grateful that we have developed a partnership with BJ’s Wholesale Club to support the McDonough community,” said president and CEO of Atlanta Community Food Bank, Kyle Waide. “Through these critical partnerships, we’re able to help our neighbors in need and provide access to basics such as nutritious meals, which are vital to those we serve in McDonough. With BJ’s support, we know we’ll be able to provide to even more in our community.”
