Twelve Nettó grocery stores and 15 Kjörbúð stores across the country will reserve the first hour of opening, 9.00am to 10.00am, for the elderly, chronically ill, and others who face increased health risks from contracting COVID-19. The initiative begins tomorrow morning, and will continue through the country’s four-week gathering ban.
The stores have introduced increase hygiene measures to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Cashiers will use masks and gloves, and all contact surfaces will be regularly disinfected.
