Open Letter from Stolychnyi Market Initiative Group to the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky @zelenskiy_official

The smooth operation of the Stolychnyi Market is a vital measure and an urgent need to help the population not stay hungry during the epidemic of the dangerous disease Coronavirus.

Our staff risk their health, and possibly even their lives, for the ordinary people.

We regularly train and instruct our staff at this tough time for all of us, sometimes without having time to rest and recover.

The director and his professional team manage and coordinate all processes and fully participate in them. The administrative building keeps a finger on the pulse day and night to timely and professionally respond to any non-standard and not always favourable changes in work. Market staff constantly monitors the cleanliness of retail premises, space and sites by regularly cleaning and disinfecting all retail space in use, thereby guaranteeing our visitors “sound” security.

The safety precautions are at the highest level here. Sellers and staff work exclusively in masks and gloves. At almost every step, you can use a hand disinfector. Besides, market employees will greet you at the entrance in glasses, masks, robes and with infrared thermometers.

We are one of the few who took responsibility for the uninterrupted food supply of our people. Our team considers it their duty to support the population at this difficult moment for the country.

Even though we do not divide the population into a sick/healthy one, the entry to the territory of the Stolychnyi Market is limited for people from more vulnerable regions.

Special thanks to some media that impartially and objectively talk about our work.

The market works according to the staff schedule and without changes since we cannot leave the population without vital and essential food!
