SowetanLive reports that Tiger Brands has temporarily closed its Durban bakery after staffers tested positive for Covid-19.
The company said on Wednesday that it had closed the bakery as a precautionary measure and had contacted the Department of Health (DOH) and the National Institute for Communicable Diseases (NICD). The food manufacturer added that it had put in place measures to support all staff while they underwent Covid-19 testing. All protocols and regulatory requirements as mandated by the DOH and the NICD have apparently been followed. It is not yet known how many employees tested positive or how they contracted the virus. The company has made alternative arrangements to supply its Durban customers from its other facilities.
