Business' owner Wesfarmer outlined changes to the Target Kmart network at the end of last week, releasing a list of Target stores that would close, or be converted to a Kmart.
Dubbo Target is not on either of the lists released by Wesfarmers on Friday.
The company says it will convert 10 to 40 Target stores and 52 Country Target stores in regional areas to Kmart stores. It will also close 10 to 25 large format stores and 50 small format Target Country stores.
In all, between 122 and 167 locations will either be converted or shut, accompanied by a significant reduction in Target's store support office.

"We understand these closures will affect a lot of people in the Target community and we appreciate your patience and understanding during these challenging times," Target said in a message to customers.
"We are committed to providing every opportunity for redeployment for our team members who will be affected by these changes.
"We are proud to have a rich history as an Australian company and we are committed to serving you, our valued customers, now and into the future. "
The changes to Target stores will mostly happen in 2021.
