Tension was also high at Delhaize this weekend: 113 of its own stores were closed on Saturday, 15 were open. According to VTM News, Delhaize has already lost 170 million euros in turnover due to the strikes. The staff is called upon to come to Zellik on Tuesday, March 14, when the unions and management meet. Whether the stores will reopen after that is not yet certain. “This will mean that there are temporarily fewer fresh products in the store, and not just at Delhaize,” says retail expert Gino Van Ossel (Vlerick Business School).
