What We’ve Done:
Drakes greatest priority during the COVID-19 pandemic has always been the health and safety of our team members and you, our valued customers.
We were the first supermarket in Australia to:
• Clean our stores with Nanocyn, a 100% chemical-free hospital-grade disinfectant which kills 99.99% of pathogens (bacteria, viruses including COVID-19 and other microorganisms that can cause disease. It is approved by the Australian TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) ARTG as a hospital-grade, registered disinfectant.
• Trial the Trolley sanitising system Sanitizit. It works by providing a measured dose of santising solution, as a mist blanket, the covers the entire trolley as it is passed through the unit. Since the trial commenced, we have now installed units at our Newton, Golden Grove and Fulham Gardens stores.
