Businesses re-opening under new COVID-19 safety guidelines have a lot to manage. We partnered with the Willmar Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce, Worthington Chamber of Commerce and Marshall Area Chamber of Commerce to put together short videos that highlight the main safety guidelines restaurants must follow as they open to the public.
The videos are available in English, Spanish, Somali and Karen languages to help our many diverse southwest Minnesota restaurants access important information. We hope they are helpful for training staff about current operations to keep both employees and customers safe.
Please share with businesses in your community!
Note: The guidelines in these videos were last updated June 10, 2020.
