This is something we have asked for several weeks and shows the importance of retail staff across Northern Ireland who have been keeping shelves and home stocked since the start of this crisis.
Delivery drivers, stock pickers, distribution centre operatives, shelves stackers and those on the tills all deserve our thanks and our praise. So too do the cleaners and other service staff that keep our stores working. They have all been doing an incredible job under hugely difficult circumstances.
Hopefully this will situation will end soon and we can start planning to open other sectors of retail. But in the meantime this is important recognition for the men and women who continue to keep Northern Ireland fed and clothed during these extraordinary times. “
