Texas-based grocer HEB is addressing the widespread reports of people clearing out store shelves amid the panic over coronavirus. In a statement HEB says:
“H-E-B has been preparing for coronavirus for several months and we are in a strong position to keep replenishing our shelves. Customers should not panic, we have the ability to restock shelves and encourage our customers to remain calm. H-E-B Partners are ready to help Texas slow the spread.”
HEB will limit purchases to four bottles of hand-sanitizer and four bottles of hand soap per transaction, per trip.
