Coronavirus in Belgium – Reopening of DIY stores: the lines are getting longer

This is one of the improvements decided on Wednesday by the National Security Council: the reopening of garden centers and DIY stores today, Saturday. One way to make containment more bearable. These businesses have the authorization to reopen but in a limited way. Social distancing must be respected there.

Reopening this Saturday, garden centers and DIY stores. After the National Security Council on Wednesday, authorization was granted to allow them to welcome customers again, but under strict conditions to respect the rules of “social distancing”. The managers were expecting a big rush and it was going well. Our journalists in the field noted significant queues at the ‘Hubo’ in Zaventem or even at the Brico de Jambes (Namur).

The usual measures, like those that apply in supermarkets, continue to apply when shopping in these stores, i.e. maintaining a sufficient distance between people, limiting the number of customers present simultaneously to a maximum of one per 10 square meters and a maximum purchase duration of 30 minutes.
