ALAMOSA —According to the CDC, wearing a facial covering, combined with social distancing and frequent handwashing, has been scientifically proven to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Starting July 22, City Market will require all customers in all locations to wear a mask when shopping in store, joining associates who continue to wear masks. As an employer, grocery provider and community partner, City Market feels a responsibility to help keep associates, customers and communities safe. They are taking this extra step now because they recognize additional precautions are needed to protect Colorado communities. 

City Market’s most urgent priority throughout the COVID-19 pandemic has been to provide a safe environment for associates and customers while meeting their societal obligation to provide open stores, ecommerce solutions and an efficiently operating supply chain so that our communities have access to fresh, affordable food and essentials.

City Market respects and acknowledges that some customers, due to medical reasons, may not be able to wear a mask (small children are exempt). Those customers are encouraged to consider an alternative option like a face shield or facial covering. If they’re unable to wear a mask or an alternative design, it is requested that they use City Market’s ecommerce services like pickup or delivery. To support all households during the COVID-19 pandemic, grocery pickup service at City Market remains free (generally a $4.95 fee). 

City Market thanks associates and customers for doing their part to slow down the spread of COVID-19.
