Senior shopping hours needed at Food Lion grocery stores during Coronavirus crisis.

The Issue

My father is a senior and regularly shops at Food Lion. Unfortunately, he has started to shop somewhere else because Food Lion has not provided a set aside time for seniors during this Coronavirus outbreak. Having to shop somewhere else has been a difficult adjustment for him.  Other seniors have also mentioned to me that they too, have not been to Food Lion these past couple of weeks because there still isn’t a set aside time for them to shop.  They don’t want to drive somewhere farther away and go to a store they are not accustomed to going to.  With almost every other grocery store and big-box retailer making accommodations for our seniors why don’t you step up and do your part Food Lion?  Our seniors are the most precious part of our population, how come you refuse to treat them that way?
