Shoppers may now go the malls to buy their essentials, pay bills, transact in banks, have their gadgets
repaired or take-out food from open restaurants provided that everyone should follow health protocols
like thermal scanning, wearing of face masks, presenting of home quarantine passes upon entry and
observing physical distancing. Common high-touch areas are sanitized round-the-clock like hallways,
ATMs, hand rails, grocery carts, etc. Elevator capacities are reduced to 50%, imposing one-way traffic in
hallways, motorcycle parking are spaced one slot apart and deployment of Safety Protocol Officers to
enforce social distancing are just few of the numerous measures imposed in each SM mall.
If leaving home is not an option, SM Malls can bring shopping right at the fingertips. Shoppers can
join the Take Out and Deliver Community on Viber and scroll on the shops of choice. Facebook pages of
each SM Mall are daily updated with announcements about which shops are open on each day.
