With foodborne bacteria causing around 75 million illnesses a year, it is important to sanitize your shopping carts daily. In February 2007, ABC News reported that shopping carts were "loaded with more saliva, bacteria, and and even fecal matter than escalators, public telephones, and even public bathrooms." Help stop the spread of all kinds of filth by keeping your carts clean. |
Mothers feel better about putting young children and infants into sanitized shopping carts. "I know dozens of hands touch individual shopping carts each day—and those are the carts where my child sits. I feel like my child has less chance of catching shared germs from sitting in a clean cart. It's important to me to keep my children healthy, and I appreciate the peace of mind that comes from a store taking the steps to ensure cleanliness" |
Customers want clean carts. Surveys show that shoppers would switch stores to those that sanitize their carts regularly. Implementing a cart-sanitizing system signals to customers that you are concerned about their well-being. Not only that, it demonstrates your stores committment to cleanliness in all areas—not just in food-handling. Clean carts are a signal that your business is serious about customer care. |
