Our priority is keeping our customers and wonderful store teams safe. Here are some of the new measures we have put in place:

• We have made provisions so that store teams wash their hands every 30 minutes and follow good cough etiquette and respiratory hygiene.
• We have put in place a significantly increased cleaning and sanitation programme in all stores, including for trollies, checkouts and baskets. Our frequent cleaning programme of all high frequency hand contact touchpoints is also complemented by regular deep cleaning with specialised industrial cleaning agents.
• Additionally, each store has a “cleaning station” where customers can avail of anti-bacterial spray to wipe down their own trollies or basket handles if they so wish.
• We have made available a substantial quantity of gloves and masks for our staff to wear, and also gloves for customers. We offer this choice because some people feel safer wearing gloves. However, we continue to recommend the HSE guidelines of hand washing every 30 minutes as one of the most important measures in stopping the spread of the Covid 19 Coronavirus.
• A comprehensive social distancing programme has been rolled out in all stores. This has been designed to make it easy for customers to maintain the advised distance.
• Protective plastic screens are installed in all stores at belted checkouts and kiosks.
• Hand sanitizer is available in all of our stores for customers and store teams.
• Since the outbreak of Covid 19 Coronavirus, Dunnes Stores has been in regular contact with the HSE, using their signage throughout our stores to reinforce behaviours to keep everyone safe. We continue to take all our guidance relating to Covid 19 Coronavirus from this trusted and expert source.

To reduce the risk of spreading Covid 19 Coronavirus, keeping 2 metres distance is recommended by the HSE and all leading health bodies. This is why our stores have strong social distancing programmes in place.

The social distancing safety measures we have implemented mean that there may be queuing at the store entrance. Safety is our priority.

Our opening hours are subject to change. To see the latest store opening hours please check our Store Information section: https://www.dunnesstores.com/store-locator.

We are committed to creating better value for our customers in these difficult times, so we have extended the validity of our Shop and Save vouchers from 10 days to 14 days.

Dunnes Stores has designated shopping hours between 11.00am and 1pm daily for elderly customers, or those who have any health issues that make them vulnerable. Their carers are also welcome at this time and should ask if they need help, especially if they are shopping for several people in one trip. It is extremely important to us to look after these customers so we have designated checkouts and staff during these times to help with their shopping.

If there are any queues, elderly, vulnerable customers and carers will be prioritised. We respectfully ask customers with children to avoid coming to the store during these hours and to shop at other times. Working together means we all get to keep each other safe.
