Where's the beef? It's back in Stanton Plaza, almost exactly six months after the beef of M&M Food Market went away when the old shop closed down on Jan. 17.

SA国际影视传媒淚 just got the a-OK yesterday at noon that we got the business licence,SA国际影视传媒� manager Tabatha Hamer said Wednesday.

It will hold its soft opening on Thursday and plans to do a grand opening in late July.

SA国际影视传媒淚t's a difficult time (to open) with the Coronavirus,SA国际影视传媒� said Hamer. SA国际影视传媒淭hey were planning on this before the pandemic hit and then it hit but they did an amazing job of getting it up.SA国际影视传媒�

Opening as it is during the Covid pandemic, the Borden Dr. store will have several safety measures, such as a limit on three customers at a time, thorough cleaning practices every 30 minutes and hand sanitizer on offer.

Some customers won't have to enter the premises or even get out of the car if they choose to use the click and collect contact-free online shopping option. A store staff member will bring the order and a payment terminal to the vehicle.

"The machine can tap through the glass or (customers) can pay online," Hamer said.

The new shop is being cautious with health while being conscious of taste and new sauces, soups and other items will be available.

SA国际影视传媒淚t's most definitely going to be focused on the customer's needs. The staff are trained on cooking methods and what products pair well together,SA国际影视传媒� Hamer said.

SA国际影视传媒淚 want to do some draws and prizes for the public when we do the grand opening, like the first 10 people in get a platter or a gift card, or maybe a barbecue package.SA国际影视传媒�

The reopened outlet comes under new ownership as a corporate branch, unlike the previous M&M that was a franchise shop.
