Supermarkets in Kyiv’s Desnianskyi district urged to switch to 24/7 operation
The government has urged retail chains to organize 24/7 operations for certain grocery supermarkets in Kyiv’s Desnianskyi district.
The Ministry of Economy’s press service reported this, Censor.NET reports.
What is known?
"Such retail facilities should ensure uninterrupted access to food for the population, and also partially perform the functions of Points of Invincibility—providing an opportunity to warm up and charge mobile devices.
Given the high level of social responsibility of retail chains, the supermarkets will operate both in the normal mode when centralized power supply is available and using their own power generation sources in the event of outages," the statement reads.
The Ministry of Economy said that information on the start of the supermarkets’ 24/7 operations, as well as the list of stores and their addresses, will be published by the Desnianskyi District State Administration.
