Market Basket has announced that beginning immediately they will adopt “Senior Shopping Hour.” From 5:30am to 7am, persons 60+ will be allowed into the stores early, before opening hours at 7am.
The stores will continue to be open regular hours – 7am to 7pm Sunday, and 7am to 9pm Monday through Saturday. The move is meant to give the elderly a special shopping time where they won’t be exposed to the general population.
Beginning tomorrow March 19, 2020, Market Basket will initiate senior shopping hours specifically geared to accommodate the needs of our customers 60 and older.

Each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 5:30 AM to 7:00 AM the stores will be open ONLY to serve customers 60 and older.
This is designed to enable these members of our community who are at greater risk with the coronavirus to shop in a less crowded environment, which enables social distancing.
We ask that you please respect the necessity of a special shopping environment for our most vulnerable neighbors.
Thank you for your help in protecting our neighbors and community.
