AN UPDATE ON COVID-19

 

The health and safety of our community is our top priority, and we recognize and appreciate the trust our customers place in us when delivering their groceries.

 

This is why we want to update you on the situation with COVID-19 (the Coronavirus) and the steps we continue to actively take to ensure the health and safety of our customers when delivering groceries. Also, please find some best practices and resources for all of us to use as we navigate this period of uncertainty.

 

Safe handling of groceries & ingredients

We're closely following local and national sanitation guidelines (resources below), on top of the usual health and sanitation precautions we have always been taking to safely handle and deliver your groceries. This includes wearing gloves, masks, disinfecting all surfaces (including packaging), and working in conjunction with our suppliers and delivery partners to ensure the entire supply chain is taking all precautionary measures.

 

Product stock & delivery dates

Growing concerns have led to increased demand, which may cause delays in the supply chain and delivery dates to be booked up in advance. We are working closely with farms, suppliers, and partners like UPS to make sure you have access to all the ingredients you need and ensure we're operating safely with minimal disruption in service.

Supporting the health & safety of our team

Our team has spent so much time preparing and implementing a number of guidelines, processes, and investments to ensure the health and safety of our team. This includes new sick paid leave policy for all team members. As of this update, none of our team members have shown symptoms or have reported cases.

 

Resources & best practices

As Grocerybox shoppers ourselves, we share global and personal concerns and want to ensure that we are monitoring all information available taking every step possible to ensure the safety of our customers and their families. Here are some steps you can take yourselves: 

 

1. Avoid going into large crowds like malls, stores, venues, etc. Use a delivery service for goods whenever possible.

2. Anyone over 70 years old should stay indoors with family and not venture outside as the virus disproportionately affects the elderly.

3. Use an ethanol-based cleaner/sanitizer to disinfect all surfaces 

4. Wash your hands (up to your elbows) for 20 seconds and avoid touching your eyes, face, or head.

5. Finally, avoid all non-essential travel. If you don't need to leave the house, do not.
