Tractor Supply Company Announces Veterans Day Discount for Active and Former Military Members

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Nov. 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tractor Supply Company, the nation's largest rural lifestyle retailer, will show its appreciation for the military community this Veterans Day by offering a special 15 percent discount to veterans, active-duty personnel and their dependents on Nov. 11.

On Nov. 11, customers with a valid military ID or other proof of service will receive 15 percent off their entire purchase. The discount will be available at all of Tractor Supply's more than 1,750 locations.

"At Tractor Supply, our gratitude and support of America's military runs deep," said Colin Yankee, former U.S. Army captain and senior vice president of supply chain at Tractor Supply Company. "Our servicemen and women are not only our neighbors, but also our customers, team members and friends. We consider it a great honor to find ways to give back to them because of their service to our country."

Beyond Veterans Day, Tractor Supply partners with military and veteran groups to extend its support throughout the year. For example, the retailer recently honored 50 veteran farmers nationwide in partnership with Farmer Veteran Coalition (FVC), the nation's largest nonprofit assisting military veterans embarking on agriculture careers. Tractor Supply donated $50,000 to veterans from coast to coast through FVC's Farmer Veteran Fellowship Fund. Veterans redeemed their donations during a one-day shopping event at Tractor Supply stores nationwide on Armed Forces Day in May 2018 to purchase critical items needed to support their agriculture business.
