In grocery stores, we must take cleanliness and hygiene seriously. Grocers must maintain high standards of cleanliness at all times.
Retail Store Cleanliness: More Than Just the Illusion of Clean
When a store can convince its customers that it’s clean, that’s an important victory. Many customers feel skeptical about store cleanliness. Now more than ever, a sanitized space, particularly when it comes to food is a non-negotiable. In addition to the human foot traffic within a grocery store, there are also considerable amounts of hand and surface contact when handling items such as food, drinks, and other household products.
Qualities that mean a grocery store is clean:
- Clean sidewalks. Before they enter a store, customers want to see clean sidewalks and steps.
- A spotless entryway. The entrance should be clean, from the floor mats to the windows. Consumers are particularly irked by debris like gum, and mysterious stains, which can indicate a lack of frequent store cleaning.
- Shining floors. When a floor is polished and gleaming, the customer is given the immediate impression of a clean environment. In the same way, a dirty floor makes them wonder what else is grimy throughout the store.
- No spills, please. Customers will judge you and your company harshly if you fail to address spills quickly – ideally, within minutes. For this reason, your store should have the staff members monitoring their entire retail floor for spills and stains.
- Make sanitizing and disinfecting a priority: Grocery stores are not only home to high-traffic areas, but are also spaces for extensive food preparation and handling. From the meat and deli counters to the bakery department, a comprehensive sanitization program is essential to the vitality and safety of your grocery store.
