Spar store in Palm Grove supports local businesses by closing down stationery section and frozen burgers
A Spar located in Palm Grove in the Western Cape announced that it would be closing down its stationery section and removed all frozen burgers to help neighbouring stores survive the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Spar made the announcement via their Facebook page to explain their reasons.
It said: "Four months ago, we wrote down our 2020 New Year’s vision but not even those with the clearest 20/20 vision could have seen what was coming. As the sun sets over our store tonight, we are overwhelmed with gratitude. We are open, we are serving our community, and our staff are able to earn an income while we are doing what we love."
"While we moved one stage closer to potential “normality”, we stop to breathe. Over the past few weeks, our breath was taken away several times. Mostly in disbelief. We watched as our lives were brought to a grinding halt."
The store will be doing the following:
- It will be closing their stationery section and asking that you instead support Hein and his team at PenCafe Stationers.
- It will remove all Frozen Burger Patties from their shelf and ask that you support Werner and the RocoMamas team when deciding what Burger to enjoy. They are still unable to welcome you into their restaurant, but Mr D will be able to bring their flavours to your doorstep.
