Call in to Protect frontline grocery workers at Market of Choice

Dear concerned shopper,
 
I hope this finds you well and safe in these trying times. As you all know there are many people working hard on the frontlines during this pandemic to keep everyone fed.  We salute your brave service and we stand in solidarity by taking a stand for your health.  To that end we are demanding that Market of Choice (one of the last Oregon owned grocery chains) take drastic steps to protect their grocery employees.  

Please take a minute to call the Cedar Mill store specifically and follow the link below to call all of the other stores in Oregon asking for additional protections for these valued members of our community.  Please ask them to forward your complaint to their corporate office.   
Portland - Cedar Mill
250 NW Lost Springs Ter.
Portland, OR 97229
503.596.3592

Additional stores can be found at this page.

Please ask for the following. 

1) Market of Choice provides masks, safety glasses, and gloves for all employees to "optionally" wear.  

2) Market of Choice requests that customers bag their own groceries. 

3) Market of Choice requests that customer "small talk" be kept to a minimum during check out and that customers cover their coughs.    

Also feel free to turn this into a social media post and circulate online.  

Thank you so much for your time and efforts.  
Be safe out there, Frontline Workers Protection Now
