COVID made life difficult for our local butchers last week with all the staff, save one, having to isolate at home due to being close contacts.
Butcher, Brad Addlem, told the Tarrangower Times that fortunately people came in to help serve, otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to stay open at all.
“Last week was pretty tough, but we’re doing well now,” said Brad. “We’re back to business as usual, although we still have two staff members isolating at the moment.
“There might be a few things we don’t have; not as many varieties of sausages and hamburgers as normal, but that’s all. Supply issues haven’t been enough to worry us, not like the supermarkets.”
Returning to normal business hours: Monday to Friday: 6am – 5.30pm, Saturday 6am-12pm and closed Sunday.
