Weis Markets has temporarily closed all locations this Sunday due to severe winter weather conditions. This decision reflects the company’s commitment to prioritizing the well-being of its community over business operations.

Prioritizing Employee and Customer Safety

The closure was implemented out of an abundance of caution for both employees and customers. By suspending operations, the company ensures no one has to travel in hazardous weather conditions, whether commuting to work, obtaining prescriptions, or shopping for groceries.

Reducing Unnecessary Travel and Associated Risks

Severe winter storms significantly increase travel risks. By closing its locations, Weis Markets reduces unnecessary trips, encourages individuals to remain safely at home, and alleviates congestion on hazardous roadways. This proactive measure provides one less reason for individuals to venture out in unsafe conditions.

Temporary Inconvenience for Long-Term Safety

While the closure may create temporary inconvenience, it represents a responsible pause to ensure the safety of employees and customers alike. This approach also offers employees peace of mind.
