Woolworths has this afternoon reinstated a purchase limit of two toilet paper packs per customer both in-store and online across Victoria.

The move follows the Victorian Government's announcement of a lockdown and will ensure more Woolworths customers have fair access to the product.

To help uphold safety in its stores, Woolworths will also redeploy health ambassadors at the front of stores to support with additional cleaning and wiping down of trolleys.

In line with Victorian Government directives, all customers and team members are expected to wear face masks and check with the government QR code in Woolworths stores.

Comments from Woolworths General Manager for Victoria, Andrew Hall:

'As a precautionary measure, we've reinstated product limits on toilet paper following the Victorian Government's announcement.

'We have plenty of stock in our supply chain and our team members will be hard at work making sure it continues to flow into our stores in large volumes for our customers.

'As always, we encourage our customers to be mindful of others in the community and buy only what they need.

'We also ask customers to follow all social distancing and COVIDsafe measures in our stores and to treat our team members with respect as we work through this unsettling time together.'
