Together, we are facing a truly unprecedented situation. The global coronavirus pandemic is affecting all our families, our businesses, our communities, and our way of life. During this time, I want to reach out and update you on how we’re approaching the situation at Alphen Egg Packaging Distributors.
First and foremost, our hearts go out to anyone who's been impacted by the virus, either directly or indirectly. Our thoughts are especially with those whom have contracted the virus, to whom we extend our heartfelt wishes for a full recovery. We are also truly inspired by the selfless healthcare workers around the world who are on the front lines working tirelessly to care for many people in need.
Secondly, on 23 March 2020, President Ramaphosa announced that companies that are deemed essential to the production and transportation of food, basic goods and medical supplies will remain open during this 21-day 'lockdown'.
Your health and that of our staff is of utmost importance to us. Owing to the rapid progression of COVID-19 infections taking place globally, we have put measures in place to reduce the risk of infection for our customers, suppliers and employees alike. In this regard, all staff at Alphen Egg Packaging have been instructed to minimize all physical contact as far as possible.
We still take our commitment to provide excellent customer service very seriously. We assure you that for the time being, Alphen Egg Packaging Distributors is still fully operational, and have not experienced any significant disruption arising from issues related to COVID-19. We are offering our customers and suppliers alternative measures to enable us to continue with business as far as possible. For the lockdown period (currently 26 March 2020 to 16 April 2020) these measures will include the following:
Operating Hours:
Alphen Egg Packaging Distributors will physically be open Monday to Friday, operating between 08h00 and 16h00.
Deliveries:
We have obtained the necessary permits to continue with our daily operations. Deliveries will still take place as usual, that is, on full freights and within a 50km radius from our premises in Alphen Park. For any deliveries, we encourage you to make arrangements with Janine or Fotia.
Collections:
In order to ensure that we assist you as efficiently as possible, it would be appreciated if you could call us in advance at 079 610 6828 or 082 495 5866 before visiting our premises in order to allow us to prepare your invoice as well as your collection. We also appeal to you to effect EFT payments rather than cash payments during this lockdown period.
Access:
For your as well as our own protection, access inside our office will be limited during the lockdown period.
Thank you for your understanding as we react to this global issue, and thank you, our valued clients, for your incredible support and positive messages during rather uncertain and challenging times. In the words of our President: “We are in this together, and it is by working together that we will prevail.”
As a part of a much broader collective community, Alphen Egg Packaging will continue to do whatever is required to work together towards addressing this situation and shall update you regularly regarding any operational changes.
