"It will help us in our ongoing efforts to keep everyone safe and healthy during these uncertain times as well as helping us as a business help the environment."
Other new features in stores including social distancing measures such as special floor markings, a one-way system and external queuing, hygiene changes including a hand sanitising station upon entry and safety devices such as plastic screens at checkouts and visors for all colleagues.
