Walmart To Begin Regulating Store Entry On Saturday

Walmart said that it will regulate how many customers can be in a store beginning Saturday.

Stores will now allow no more than five customers for every 1,000 square feet. Walmart estimates 1,000 square feet is approximately one-fifth of a typical store's capacity.

Once a store reaches five customers per 1,000 square feet, they will admit customers on a one in, one out basis.

Walmart will also use aisle markers where only one-way movement is allowed in a particular aisle as well as signs reminding customers to socially distance themselves from others.
