“Almost two months after the suspension of the main activities of the centers, we see that the possibility of operating is currently the only means of sustainable support for small and medium-sized companies. The offer to trade online or contactless saves only a small part of the businesses and a very small part of the turnover, while others generally do not have the opportunity and the willingness to do so, they do not have the conditions to invest in the form of sale from distance. Some, especially the small ones, are considering the complete closure of the business, ”says Mindaugas Statulevičius, president of LNTPA.
LNTPA, which unites managers, investors and consultants from large supermarkets, including Akropoliai in Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipėda, the capital Panorama, Ozas, CUP, BIG, Outlet park, Unideco, offers trade in places to guarantee no less than 40 square meters . . m per person of commercial space and we constantly monitor the shopping center in public areas, meeting the requirements of distance and no assembly.
It is also proposed to carry out regular tests, at least once a week, on a voluntary basis at the expense of supermarkets and tenants to test all employees working at the center. The obligation to come to work only with a negative test result may also apply.
It is proposed to organize the traffic in the supermarkets in such a way that the flows of customers moving in opposite directions are not found separating the movement in the alleys in opposite directions. Therefore, supermarkets would commit to using the maximum possible ventilation and extraction capacity (depending on the weather conditions) to ensure the fastest possible air exchange.
“Supermarkets offer a commitment to ensure that each visitor changes their mask upon entering the mall and to arrange for such masks to be provided at the expense of the store manager,” the association said.
The association also proposes to set a few hours on working days, when only customers over 60 are served at the point of sale of essential services.
As of December 16, there are only food stores, pharmacies, opticians, and orthopedic and veterinary points of sale in the country.
