Details
The Ministry of Economy "appealed to retail chains with a request to support the residents of the Desnianskyi district of Kyiv and organize round-the-clock operation of certain grocery supermarkets."
Such retail facilities, as noted by the ministry, should:
- ensure uninterrupted access of the population to food products;
- partially perform the functions of invincibility points (provide an opportunity to warm up and charge mobile devices).
Deputy Minister of Economy, Environment and Agriculture Taras Vysotskyi announced the readiness of retail chains to support Kyiv residents.
It is expected that supermarkets will operate both in normal mode with centralized electricity supply and using their own power generation sources in case of outages.
Information on the start of round-the-clock operation of supermarkets, as well as a list of stores and their addresses, will be published by the Desnianskyi District State Administration.
