Dear Graul’s Customers,
The health and safety of our customers and associates is and has always been a priority at Graul’s Market. The Coronavirus (COVID-19) has created an unprecedented situation throughout the world and right here at home, too. We are taking precautionary measures to help keep you and our associates safe at Graul’s Market.
We focus on cleaning every day. We are especially focused on cleaning our stores and surfaces that are most frequently contacted by customers and our associates. We follow guidelines from Federal agencies and our industry trade associations to establish best practices for cleaning in our stores.
Our focus on cleaning is widespread. We focus on cleaning many areas daily, including but not limited to, shopping carts, hand baskets, doors and handles, checkstands, credit card terminals, all display cases and restrooms with proper disinfectants. We continue to offer cart wipes to allow you to sanitize carts and other surfaces when you shop.
As a precaution, we have temporarily discontinued self-service food sampling in our stores. We will continue to offer sampling served by our associates in a manner that is safe and wholesome.
We supervise and communicate with our associates to make sure they follow high standards for sanitation. Our team has been trained under the ServSafe food safety program to understand the best ways to operate our market in a safe manner.
We will continue to monitor the situation and react accordingly. We thank you for your trust in our family as we celebrate our 100th year in business. We wish you the best of luck in safely dealing with this situation.
Sincerely,
The Team at Graul’s Market
