“Effective immediately, we will be close for business from April 26 to May 9,” Superking Supermarket said on Facebook.
“As a precautionary measure, we have asked all members of our staff to get tested so we can guarantee and safeguard the wellbeing of both our staff and customers upon reopening.”
In a statement emailed to Global News, a spokesperson for the Middlesex-London Health Unit said the MLHU cannot provide any case-related information in regards to Superking Supermarket.
“The health unit does not typically identify specific cases tied to a particular facility or business unless there is a compelling public health reason to do so,” the spokesperson said.
“We can confirm that the business’s decision to close was not at the direction of the Middlesex-London Health Unit.”
The grocery store, which operates out of Westmount Shopping Centre on Wonderland Road South, says it will be using the 13-day closure to “conduct a deep cleaning and sanitization of the store.”
