Beepats holds price on sanitizing products

Persons waiting their turn to enter the Beepats Supermarket on Regent Street last Thursday

Beepats, the authorized distributor for the Lysol brand of sanitizing products, has limited retail sales of the products to two per person at its retail branch on Regent Street while maintaining the same prices it has always asked.

This decision, the company explained on Friday, is to ensure that as many people as possible are able to make purchases in light of recent panic buying and price gouging for cleaning/sanitizing products in wake of the confirmation of the presence of the coronavirus here.

In a statement on Friday, the company noted that it had not changed its pricing at its Regent Street store and distribution centre.
