Retailers in Newfoundland and Labrador selling milk, chicken and eggs should not limit quantities available to customers. Healthy supplies of these products are produced in Newfoundland and Labrador, are continuously available, and no shortages or service disruptions are anticipated.

Customers should be permitted to purchase these products in required amounts to ensure sufficient quantities without the need for multiple store visits.

The Provincial Government appreciates the efforts of all those helping to reduce the risk of transmitting COVID-19 through physical distancing measures, and the producers, processors, retailers and front-line workers who continue to ensure a safe, steady supply of food for residents.
