Grocery Store

The average person goes to the grocery store 1.6 times a week and spends 43 minutes. Therefore, on average we spend about 60 hours grocery shopping per year. Amid the Coronavirus Pandemic grocery stores are besieged with huge crowds seeking grocery and household supplies as the nation practice social distancing. However, increased traffic translates into increased germs. In fact,shopping carts have 270 times more bacteria than a toilet handle. Superstores have 33,340 bacteria colonies per square inch on fridge doors, as compared to the 27 colonies per square inch found on the average cell phone surface. Produce found at upscale grocery stores tested positive for 30 times the amount of bacteria colonies, possibly due to reduced pesticide usage in organic fruits and vegetables. Due to unprecedented traffic and increased surface contact by multiple people, grocery stores are potentially high risk environments for the deadly Coronavirus. Bioguard America will create an effective decontamination plan of action to make your grocery store safe for your valued staff and customers.

Has someone occupying your commercial building become ill with COVID-19, or are you awaiting test results? The safest course of action is to consider the entire building contaminated and a potential risk to current occupants until you can perform the proper contact tracing. Whether your business has a confirmed COVID-19 outbreak or you simply want to be proactive to reduce the chance of a future outbreak upon reopening, the onus is on you to keep your clients and employees safe from the deadly COVID-19. In fact, General Duty Clause, 29 USC 654, section 5(a)(1) requires that employers protect their employees and clients from recognized hazards.

Bioguard America will help you create a proactive approach to limit your potential financial and legal exposure.
