2026 Virginia Power 50 List: MICHAEL C. CREEDON JR.
CEO, DOLLAR TREE, CHESAPEAKE
Virginia Business //March 1, 2026//
At the end of 2024, Creedon became permanent CEO of Dollar Tree, having become the retailer’s interim head after Rick Dreiling stepped down, citing health problems. Creedon joined the Fortune 500 discount retailer as chief operating officer in 2022, after over six years with Advance Auto Parts.
Recent years have challenged the chain, which operated more than 16,000 stores in 48 states and five Canadian provinces in November 2024. As of January, it operated only 9,200 stores in North America, having sold its Family Dollar stores in July 2025 for $1 billion to two New York investment and management firms.
Dollar Tree anticipated full-year fiscal 2025 net sales of $19.35 billion to $19.45 billion during its third quarter earnings report.
An alumnus of Middlebury College, Creedon serves on the boards of trustees for the Chrysler Museum of Art and Norfolk Academy.
