The regular stores network guarantee the on-time selling of the basic basket

With the gradual approach to normality, the units of the Commerce Business Group in Las Tunas resume their operations and the industrial stores and Ideal markets reopen their doors with the range of products they regularly sell.

Las Tunas, Cuba.- Nodelcio Rodríguez Ortiz, acting director of Commerce, assured 26Digital that, despite the stability of the epidemiological situation in the province, the sale of chlorine at one percent will continue in all of the authorized points in the eight municipalities of the territory.

“Due to the positive experience that the quarantine stage has left us, we have decided not to sell the cleaning products in the industrial markets, but to maintain their distribution in the network of regular stores through the established modules to guarantee that the resources reach each family nucleus in a controlled manner- pointed out the manager.

"We want to reiterate that bath and laundry soap will be sold every month, toothpaste will be bimonthly and liquid detergent will be guaranteed in the quarter. We still lack the municipality of Jobabo to receive the latter, and in Puerto Padre and Majibacoa its sale has not been completed.

“Regarding the basic basket they work incessantly so that it reaches the population on the corresponding days. We reiterate that the pound per capita of chicken, at a prize without subsidy, which has been marketed in the last two months, is not available; this benefit is only maintained for children from zero to 13 years old.”

Rodríguez Ortiz reported that the well-known El Serrucho industrial market will not resume its services at this stage, since it is in repair work that will allow it to improve its offer levels.

He also reiterated that the protocols guided by the Ministry of Public Health will be maintained and the disinfection of hands and surfaces at the entrance of each premises will be guaranteed. Likewise, they will rigorously ensure that workers with respiratory symptoms do not attend any establishment, nor interact with consumers.
