The opening of seasonal stores promotes the Ministry of development and Investments with the simultaneous lifting of the prohibition of sale of the respective products in Supermarket. The information indicates that this opening will take place on Monday, December 7.
As Development Minister Adonis Georgiadis said at the two-day web conference held by the Institute for Consumer Research on Retail Consumer Goods (IELKA): next year except during holidays. You will know the finalization of the decision and how it will be done in the next few hours from the Ministry of Development. Of course, from the moment we open the retail trade of these items, the same will happen with supermarkets and specific products will come out of the ban. “
He stressed that “the Greek market moved with much better rules, compared to other European countries and showed that we are capable of the difficult.”
He added that in the second wave of the pandemic that has hit everyone hard, the industry still maintains security measures.
“I was the first to come out and refute all the rumors that emerged that supermarkets were supposed to be coronavirus outbreaks. I want to assure you that I spoke with EODY and there is no scientific evidence to support this opinion. On the contrary, it has been proven that the supermarket market has moved in a form of great health insurance ”.
The minister expressed his assessment that the period of the coronavirus pandemic will play an important role in changing consumer habits in the future.
As he said, many people had never bought online and were forced to make purchases online while several businesses that did not have an online store acquired and adapted to the changes.
One segment of the market will continue to behave more “online” and less “naturally” after the pandemic. However, he assured that the retail trade and its physical presence will continue to have the lion’s share and is a bet for the market, for the ministry and companies to provide good services and good products at competitive prices.
