London Drugs is being applauded by Winnipeg business organizations for its decision to offer shelf space to local products during the coronavirus pandemic. | The retailer, which has stores throughout Western Canada, announced Wednesday it was accepting applications from small, local business owners whose operations have been affected by public-health orders. Selected products will be featured in dedicated aisles dubbed “Local Central.” | Robert Felix, the company’s senior vice-president of merchandising, says London Drugs has previously offered local items such as honey, flowers and corn at stores in British Columbia and Alberta and has had success selling cookies for Girl Guides of Canada during the pandemic. | “People want to support their local charities… and they want to support their local businesses,” Felix said. “We just see it as an opportunity to add value, not only in the community, but also to our customers, as well.”
