Macy’s is planning to reopen 68 stores in the U.S. on Monday as the beginning of its reopening process, the company announced Thursday.
The largest department store chain in the country aims to have all of its about 775 stores open again in six weeks if the coronavirus infections decline. After Monday, 50 other stores will reopen in the next phase on May 11, Reuters reported.
But the stores will adjust for a post-coronavirus world. The number of fitting rooms available will decrease and be sanitized frequently. The department stores’ reopening reflects other business plans that are attempting to restart slowly and with restrictions.
The stores that will reopen must be in areas where restrictions have been loosened, and management has to implement health and safety minimum standards and minimum staffing.
