New York City (Reuters) – Macy’s Inc prepares to reopen 68 U.S. shops on Monday in states that have actually loosened up coronavirus lockdowns, the outlet store operator said on Thursday, as more retailers sought to get service pursuing a crushing month of closures.

Cincinnati, Ohio-based Macy’s, the largest U.S. department store operator by sales, stated it anticipates to have all of its roughly 775 shops reopened in six weeks, if infection rates reduce as predicted and state and local governments allow it.
The next batch of roughly 50 shops is set up to reopen on May 11, it stated.
Nevertheless, the shopping experience will be greatly changed, as many buyers stay cautious about the virus.
