Leading retail chains such as BRGMart, Aeon, and WinMart have implemented attractive discount programmes to stimulate consumer demand. Shoppers visiting these supermarkets on the morning of April 28 witnessed a livelier shopping atmosphere with bustling activity.
The BRG supermarket system, for instance, has launched a promotional programme offering discounts of up to 50 per cent on hundreds of items, valid until September 9.

Supermarkets have responded to the increased demand for essential goods by working closely with suppliers to increase inventory and maintain reasonable pricing.
