NEXT PLC
NEXT To Reopen Online, Warehousing and Distribution
On Thursday 26 March NEXT announced it had temporarily closed
its Online business along with its Warehousing and Distribution
Operations, having listened very carefully to colleagues.
NEXT has since implemented very extensive additional safety
measures and having consulted with colleagues and our recognised
union, USDAW, it will re-open Online in a very limited way from
today, Tuesday 14 April 2020. Initially only categories that our
customers most need will be offered, such as Childrenswear and
selected small Home items. Other product ranges may be added at a
later date.
Operations will start with support from colleagues who are
willing and able to safely return to work. The idea is to begin
selling in low volumes, so that we only need a small number of
colleagues in each warehouse at any one time, helping to ensure
rigorous social distancing is complied with.
To achieve these limited volumes, NEXT will only allow customers
to order the number of items that it believes can be picked safely
on any given day. At that point we will then stop taking orders and
convert the website to 'browse only' until the following
morning.
For further information about health and safety measures at NEXT
Online warehouses, including video footage, please see our Company
Statement on our Corporate website through the following link:
