Primark to re-open stores in England on June 15
01 Jun 20 2 min read
Following the government announcement, Primark, an international retailer, has announced that the company is working to re-open all its stores in England on June 15, with extensive measures in place to help safeguard employees and customers. Company is still awaiting further clarification regarding re-opening dates in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Primark stated that it is closely following all government safety advice and applying experience gained from our store openings across Europe, putting rigorous health and safety measures in place in all stores, which include: limits on the number of customers allowed in store at any one time to allow for the appropriate distance in between customers and employees, following government guidelines; hand sanitiser stations will be made available at the entrance and on the shop floor and back of house for employee and customer use; and the frequency and rigour of store cleaning will increase, particularly around high frequency touchpoints such as tills, escalators, lifts, and employee areas in back of house.
“As we re-open our stores in England, nothing matters more than the health and wellbeing of our colleagues and customers,” Primark CEO, Paul Marchant, said in a press release.
We will adopt all government safety advice as a minimum in our stores and have benefited from our experience in the other markets in Europe where we have already opened successfully. As we open, we will continue to look at best practice across the retail sector and amend our measures appropriately.”
