First hour at grocery stores is for seniors [View all]

Twin Cities grocery chain Lunds & Byerlys has changed its hours in response to the coronavirus, and wants to make the first hour after opening specifically for those at high-risk from the disease.

The Twin Cities grocery chain announced its stores will be open 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. seven days a week, reducing hours to "help ensure the well-being of our staff, replenishment of our products and an even deeper cleaning of our stores."

What's more, it's asking customers to observe its new policy that the first hour of business, from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m., be reserved for those who are most at risk from COVID-19.

Heard that Trader Joe's and Kowalski are, too.
