As you know, we did close the Bedford Superstore this afternoon.​ We want to assure our customers and employees that we take their safety very seriously.

​

We are aware that one of the colleagues from the Bedford Superstore has recently tested positive for COVID-19.​ We have been in touch with the local public health team and have taken a number of steps to minimize risk, including increased sanitization protocols and enforcing social distancing practices in the store. The store has been closed for a thorough cleaning, and is expected to reopen tomorrow.

​

Additionally, colleagues who worked closely with this individual are now at home in self-isolation, monitoring for any symptoms.

​

Anyone with further questions or concerns should contact Public Health.

​

Note: we have a pretty stringent/robust protocol in place.
