Several other grocers across the region, including Metro and Food Basics have reported cases of their employees testing positive for the virus.

Sobeys says it will dedicate itself to continuously updating their coronavirus tracker in order to give transparency of confirmed cases in their stores.

All cases will be removed from the tracker after 14 days of reporting unless Public Health provides more information.

“Where required, we will communicate with customers who have shopped in the impacted location, with store signage, outlining our steps to manage the situation,” said the grocer.

“We will make every effort to update this information in due course and as information becomes available to us, following the guidance of Public Health.”
