Jaipur: While the year 2020, on account of the pandemic, has been extremely challenging for everyone, the grocery retail staff who have been untiringly serving across all occasions & festivals, must not be forgotten for their grit and determination especially during these challenging times. They are the ones who have made a constant effort of making the whole grocery retail eco-system work seamlessly with selfless efforts of working relentlessly to stand and serve groceries at the stores and even at the doorsteps of the consumers.  The retail employees have emerged as Corona Warriors whilst fighting the worst pandemic as frontline workers putting their as well as their families’ lives at risk to keep consumers’ essential needs & requirements fulfilled.

As a part of the retail community Kirana King has felicitated, honoured & applauded the remarkable contributions of the ‘True Warriors’ this Retail Employees Day (RED) on 12^th December, 2020 under the aegis of a small event at its state of the art Distribution Center in Jaipur.

Mr. Anup Kumar, Founder & CEO of Kirana King, “The hard work and dedication of Retail Employees should set an example for everybody, for they never hesitated to work or to serve even in the most critical times of the pandemic. As the backbone of the organized retail ecosystem, these retail workers kept working selflessly amidst the Corona Virus outbreak and beyond. In this daring battle of humanity, our retail employees were the one’s lion-hearted. All the employees who always stood at the forefront need to be saluted and applauded for their selfless services.”

Mr. Anup Kumar, Founder & CEO of Kirana King, has expressed gratitude to all the employees and shared a message by saying, “We are humbled by the contributions of our network store workers, who go to work and risk their lives to serve the humanity.
