"In addition to following CDC and other health authority guidelines and providing our stores with the latest safety guidance, we have invested additional labor hours into our stores to allow for more frequent cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting, paying close attention to high touch areas such as service counters, restrooms, carts and checkout lanes," Sprouts said on the company's website.

The company has also started to install plexiglass barriers at registers and is promoting social distancing and hygiene measures.
