An increasing number of Puma stores is now reopening, always under the highest health and safety precautions. Puma is a leading multinational corporation that designs and manufactures athletic and casual footwear, apparel, and accessories, headquartered in Bavaria, Germany. The company is the third largest sportswear manufacturer in the world.
Puma stores in Turkey closed in mid-March. Two months later, more than half of them reopened and the rest is expected to fully open at the beginning of June. The staff in the stores helps to implement a safe and hygienic customer experience. In order to follow the rules, colleagues in Turkey created a safety concept, which includes controlled entrance, mask requirements and product sanitizer.
After weeks of lockdown, 13 of the regional stores in Ukraine has reopened and the rest is planned to open over the next days. As life is slowly returning to a new normal, Puma’s biggest priorities are to focus on staying healthy and keeping safe during this period.
“We’re glad to hear the compliments from our clients: They are happy with having this safe and pleasant customer experience in our stores as a safe shopping environment has now become an essential part of great service,” Kim Altyshev, senior team-head retail operations at Puma said in a press release.
Puma Ukraine also implemented a strict ‘Stay Safe’ operational standard, with enforced hygiene measures and social distancing procedures to provide safety for everyone, especially in retail. Puma Ukraine makes sure that its stores are safe for both employees and customers by providing face masks, gloves, hand sanitizers, and glasses. All stores have restricted store capacity to follow social distancing guidelines and employees’ temperatures will be taken at the beginning of each shift. In Russia, one Puma store has reopened, with more to come.
The same measures apply for Puma India, where 100 out of 370 exclusive Puma stores are open: Ensuring a safe and hygienic environment for the customers and employees is their biggest priority in retail and many customers appreciate the measures Puma is taking and cooperate with its retail staff.
