Here, Darius Ryliškis, a spokesman for the Norfa retail chain, told tv3.lt that there are no plans to shorten the time of stores.

Lina Skersytė, representative of Lidl Lietuva, also stated that there are no plans to change the opening hours of the stores.
At the time, Renata Keršienė, a representative of the Rimi retail chain, said that shoppers had deliberately acted after local quarantines were announced, visiting stores less frequently during peak hours, but the time of a store located in the Panorama shopping and entertainment center would be shortened.
“From November 9 to November 30, our online store will be open every day from 8 am to 10 pm
We do not change the opening hours of other supermarkets, but we are constantly monitoring the situation ”, commented a representative of the retail chain.
The Maxima retail chain also reduces the opening hours of some stores.
“Store opening hours are being reduced to accommodate the changing needs of customers due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We also want to reduce the workload of our employees by assessing the potential risks of infection. COVID-19 is constantly spreading. We are monitoring the situation and, if necessary, working hours will be further adjusted in some Lithuanian municipalities or in our separate stores, “said Ernesta Dapkienė, Director of the Department of Communication and Image of Maxima.
He recalled that after part of the summer season, the opening hours of the stores have already been adjusted. For the fall period, according to E. Dapkienė, the current situation of the COVID-19 pandemic has been taken into account when planning the opening hours of stores, when both employees and buyers must comply with rules and requirements of stricter security. The distribution of customer flows was also evaluated and analyzed so that everyone could comfortably plan their purchases.
From almost a hundred Maxima stores operating throughout Lithuania, as of November 7. the opening hours of 27 stores are changing or have already been changed.
