Chickmont Foods said it has been informed that one of its staff members has tested positive for COVID-19.
The company said in a public notice on its Instagram page that it was working closely with officials in the Ministry of Health & Wellness to manage the situation.
“While not mandated, we have decided to close our production plant and sales and distribution divisions on July 14 to facilitate mass testing,” the company said in the public notice.
“This will not impact the ability to our customers to purchase products as our depots shall remain open for business and look forward to safely serving you.”
The company said it remained committed to producing safe quality food and playing its part in navigating the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
